Rule 30 tile puzzle
thingiverse
A single "big-bang" piece and multiple "rule-30-cells" pieces form a pseudo-random pattern based on Stephen Wolfram's Rule 30 Elementary Cellular Automaton, used in Mathematica as a random number generator. This puzzle showcases the unpredictable nature of mathematics. Print one copy of big-bang-v2.stl and as many rule-30-cells-v2.stl copies as desired. Construct the puzzle row by row, filling inward arrows while ensuring downward outward arrow continuity. Continuously print additional rule-30-cells and extend the puzzle. Learn more about Rule 30 at mathworld.wolfram.com/Rule30.html and find source code and further details on logarithmic.net/pfh/blog/01400409242. The latest update, dated June 11, 2014, refines the shape to prevent entire rows from being flipped.
