#Conway's game of #Life is entertaining and worth looking at. Simple rules produce complexity, for instance the #glider, a figure which migrates across the board or space, and the glider gun, which spits them out.
The #vonNeuman machine conceptually makes more of itself. See the #monolith in #ACClarke's #2001aspaceodyssey or perhaps #saberhagen 's #Berserkers #SciFi
Imagine a #drone #factory which hides, moves, and spits out drones which attack the enemy.
Could get messy.

"Le sabbie di marte", di A. C. Clarke. Primo romanzo pubblicato 70 anni fa da Urania e oggi riproposto in questa collana celebrativa (70 anni di futuro).
Che bello le storie di fantascienza in cui c'è l'universo, altri pianeti, navi spaziali, la scienza. E la speranza che il futuro sia, sostanzialmente, meglio di quello che vediamo tutti i giorni.
E che belle le copertine di Franco Brambilla.
