We've stowed away all the 120v devices, untied the lines and have begun our sail north toward Juneau, Alaska! We will sail through the inside passage and out at the northern tip of Vancouver Island.
As we hop between anchorages, I'd like to try exploring the question: Is a graphical environment running on top a naive string rewriting computer possible, or even usable?

in reply to Murilo • • •I have heard of it, but I've never tried to run it, or seen anything, I've only read about it. Is it possible to run it today?
What I'm working on is a bit different tho, it's more like a graphical environment where all computation is a rewrite rule, not like a L-System, more like, say Oberon, but written in rules.

in reply to Devine Lu Linvega • • •I have never ran the BITPICT software (I did a few homebrew implementations hehe), but as far as I understood is a cellular automata like engine with variable neighborhood/event window and all the computation is done through pixel rewrites. I am not super familiar with Oberon, but this article discuss a few ideas around building interfaces with pixel rewrite, I guess it could be generalized as symbol/sign/tile rewrites?
I am following your string rewriting exploratiom very excited to see what is going to come out of it :B
