    An extendable DOS/Windows application for exploring cellular automata, accompanied by a thorough user guide; by rudy rucker and John Walker.
    http://www.fourmilab.ch/cellab/
    by Rudy Rucker and John Walker
    Introduction (from the User Guide
    Cellular automata are self-generating computer graphics movies. The most important near-term application of cellular automata will be to commercial computer graphics; in five years you won't be able to watch television for an hour without seeing some kind of CA. Three other key applications of cellular automata will be to simulation of biological systems (artificial life), to simulation of physical phenomena (heat-flow and turbulence), and to the design of massively parallel computers. Most of the programs in the Rudy Rucker Cellular Automata Lab (CelLab) are two-dimensional cellular automata. In these programs the computer screen is divided up into "cells" which are colored rectangles or dots. Each cell is repeatedly "updated" by changing its old color to a new color. The net effect of the individual updates is that you see an ever-evolving sequence of screens. A graphics program of this nature is specifically called a cellular automaton when it is 1) parallel, 2) local, and 3) homogeneous. Parallelism means that the individual cell updates are performed independently of each other. That is, we think of all of the updates being done at once.

    George Bush doesn't sound as mean and stupid as I would have expected. Or maybe I'm just in a frame of mind to cut him slack. There are three armed Secret Service men here in my bedroom/Dogyears-World-Headquarters. The Trainee's been doing the talking, he's a guy my age, a fellow U. C. Berkeley graduate, or so he says, not that I ever saw him at any of the places I used to hang, like the Engineering Library, Cloyne Co-op or Gilman St. His name is Brad. All the SS guys have 4 letter, monosyllable names. Dick, John, Mark, Jeff, like that. I'm Wag. My dog made up the name. Brad starts out by asking me questions about my web sites, and about the FoneFoon cell phone worm, being vaguely threatening but a little jocular at the same time, the way these field-ops always are. It's like they try and give off this vibe that they already know everything about you, so you might as well go ahead and roll over onto your back and piss on yourself like a frightened dog. This isn't the first time the Secret Service has come to see me. The ultimate cause for their interest is that I run a small ISP company called Dogyears. "ISP" as in "Information Service Provider." If you don't want to deed your inalienable God-given share of cyberspace over to Pig Business, you can get your email and web access through my excellent www.dogyears.net instead of through the spam-pimps at AOL. Dogyears offers very reasonable rates, so do check us out. The hardware side of my Dogyears ISP is a phonebooth-sized wire cage of machines in a server hotel in South San Francisco. I pay a monthly fee and the server hotel gives me my own special wire, the magic Net wire, the proverbial snake-charmer's rope leading up into the sky. You'd think it would be a big fat wire, like one of those garden-hose-sized electrical conduits you see at step-down voltage transformer stations in the cruddier, more industrial parts of town such as the Islais Creek neighborhood where I actually live, but, no, the Net wire is standard 20 gauge copper.

    J oe Cube wants to be a Silicon Valley hotshot but is failing to make an impression. He wants to revive his failing marriage but his wife is more interested in a booze bottle than in him. It is New Year's Eve 1999 and in an attempt to catch his wife's interest he brings home a new product from work. The attempt fails and they go out to find a pub to bring in the New Year. So far this story is as unremarkable as a Dilbert cartoon but when Joe has put his wife to bed Momo, a visitor from the fourth dimension, visits him. This visitor augments Joe so that he can travel into this fourth dimension and begins Joe's adventures - which culminates in Joe battling against the Kluppers to save Spaceland, our 3D world. This book is in the same tradition as Edward A Abbott's novel, ‘Flatland’. They both use the foundations of Science Fiction to build up and explain a theory of mathematics. I have not read ‘Flatland’ and so cannot tell how much ‘Spaceland’ is influenced by or based on this book.

    Summary In developing Software Engineering and Computer Games and its accompanying software framework I had four broad goals. To show how to bring a complete program to the level of a commercial release. To provide a “game engine” framework of linked classes for game development. To create programs that are interactive, rapidly executing, and visually beautiful. Software Engineering and Computer Games was originally developed for use as the primary textbook in undergraduate Software Engineering and graduate Software Projects courses in the Department of Computer Science at San Jose State University (SJSU for short). In these classes we cover the topics of Software Engineering in the context of having student teams design and implement computer games.

    Hypercube Downloads Home Page Biography Works Online ... Email This is the Hypercube 98 software. The program shows tumbling four-dimensional hypercubes, as well as some 3D polyhedra, and some 2D snowflakes. A preliminary version of the program (with only the snowflakes and polyhedra) was developed by Rucker with his CS 116A Computer Graphics class at SJSU, Spring 1996. As part of her CS Master's degree Writing Project, Farideh Dormishian added hypercubes to the program and improved it in other ways. The original inspiration for the program was Rucker's desire to reproduce the appearance of snowflakes he saw falling outside his daughter Georgia's window during a visit to her apartment in NYC, March, 1996. Then Rucker and Farideh Dormishian had the idea that the window could just as well look out into hyperspace. There have been a number of programs which show tumbling wire-frame hypercubes. A difficult part of what Farideh Dormishian did was to get the hypercubes to appear with

What possesses a popular science fiction writer to write a historical novel about a sixteenth-century Flemish painter enamored of peasant ways? Unbridled fascination with the depiction of worlds real and imagined. Rucker’s keen insights into Peter Bruegel’s spellbinding and politically subversive work underpin this animated, suspenseful, and affecting tale, a step up from Tracy Chevalier’s Girl with a Pearl Earring (2000). Biographical information about Bruegel is scant, but Rucker’s sense that the painter was lively, compassionate, courageous, and determined feels right, and the characters Rucker invents to flesh out Bruegel’s violent and precarious universe are equally compelling, especially the cultured mapmaker Abraham Ortelius, who is so careful to conceal his homosexuality; the sexy and volatile half–Native American, Williblad Cheroo; and Bruegel’s smart, saucy wife. Just as Bruegel’s paintings are a great joy to behold even as they induce the viewer to face the grimmer aspects of life, Rucker’s vivid imagining of Bruegel’s trials and triumphs is set against a cutting indictment of the horrors of the Spanish occupation and Inquisition. Bruegel’s great gift was his perception of the sacred in the earthy, and Rucker follows suit in this vital portrait of a sweet-natured disciple of life’s fecund beauty in a time of cold-blooded tyranny.

He lives among them, novel as Gulliver, for 18 years, learning of their curious funeral rite: eating their dead. In the long romance "The Last Song of Sirit Byar," a traveling bard works magic with his songs, saving his last and greatest song to bring an old love back from madness, dying as he sings it.

    Keeping it Transreal
    Rudy Rucker
    [by Tom Georgoulias] Rudy Rucker has a lot of things on his mind. Although his day job has him teaching computer science and mathematics at San Jose State University, Rudy Rucker is a writer. He as written twenty nonfiction and science fiction books covering such topics as higher dimensions, artificial life, and biotechnology. Called the original cyberpunk author by many, his self described 'transreal' writing style is akin to Kerouac's On the Road and an issue of Scientific American after a run through the mince cycle on a blender. I recently had the chance to catch up with Rucker and discuss two of his most recent books, Seek! and Saucer Wisdom frontwheeldrive : I've been reading your new nonfiction collection Seek! , and I'd like to start with some computer science questions for you. You write about simulated evolution to develop machines that are as intelligent as their creators, yet today's AI research seems farther from reaching the goal of intelligent machines than ever. What do you see as the missing link necessary to bring AI research up to speed with your visions of intelligent machines? Rudy Rucker : There's a tendency to think that maybe if we can just throw enough hardware at the AI problem, then evolution can take care of the rest. Certainly that's how God went about making us. We evolved inside a planetary-sized round-the-clock simulation over maybe a billion years.
