Online Exhibition Explores Generative Art Through Conway's Game of Life
An online exhibition titled 'The Game of Life - Emergence in Generative Art' is presented by Kate Vass Gallery. The show serves as a tribute to mathematician John Horton Conway, who died from COVID-19 on April 11, 2020. The exhibition explores connections between art, mathematics, and natural systems through concepts like cellular automata and emergence. The accompanying essay discusses how generative art and Conway's Game of Life reveal how complex natural patterns can be simulated using simple algorithms.
