Flowing Kinematic Cellular Automata

Kinematic Cellular Automata are modular robots that may provide the real-world basis for the T-1000 of Terminator 2. The individual cube-bot is quite limited: All it can do is communicate with it’s neighbors, move with respect to it’s neighbors (flow), and change color (pixilate). Cubic KCAs are a primitive version of Josh Hall’s Utility Fog (see or read his book “Nanofuture“). See also “Kinematic Self-Replicating Machines“ by Robert Fre
