The Game of Life

John Conway's game of life was created in the 1970's. From 4 simple rules life seems to develop through a 2d grid.

1. Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbours dies, as if by loneliness.
2. Any live cell with more than three live neighbours dies, as if by overcrowding.
3. Any live cell with two or three live neighbours lives, unchanged, to the next generation.
4. Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbours comes to life.

This concept when developed with Urban Planning can take the development of the City in a completely different direction. This idea has been developed to create Voxopolis by The masters of Advanced Studies in CAAD at ETH in Zurich.
