#sierpinski — Public Fediverse posts

I just stumbled into the fact that in Conway's Game of Life, if you start with a one cell line, you get a Sierpinski triangle.

Apparently, one-cell-thick patterns are interesting: https://conwaylife.com/wiki/One-cell-thick_pattern

#sierpinski #fractal patterns on an undeveloped #16mmfilm which is nonperforated microfilm

no idea of film type or brand, I guess the film is bw, or was color ever used for microfilms?

Two Ways to Draw Infinite Jest's Sierpinski Gasket

🤔 Ah, the mystical world of 16-byte #x86 #assembly, where #coding #wizards conjure #Sierpinski #triangles from the ether and somehow turn them into music. 🎶 Because we all know what the world really needs is yet another way to remind us that coding is a #strange #cult where people speak in tongues of "int 10h" and worship at the altar of "mov ds, bx." 🙄

@scruss The PICTURE command can group objects, and also output SVG animations. Although I’ve made a screen recording here as animated SVGs aren’t accepted

@scruss Nice, this version has a few changes to fill the shapes with PENDOWN and PENUP to avoid draw extraneous lines.

@scruss Thanks. Here’s the Sierpinski program adapted to run LibreOffice using the built-in LibreLogo environment https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/swriter/librelogo/LibreLogo.html

One of LibreLogo’s advantages is that the output is vector graphics that can be edited (but rasterised here for convenience).

🤔 Ah, the #nostalgia of #1980s bit-fiddling meets #Sierpiński #triangles in a convoluted, caffeine-induced fever dream! 👾 Who knew that #C #language devotees still cling to these ancient rites, conjuring up #code #optimization hacks that do more to befuddle than optimize? 🧐 Truly, the pinnacle of #programming enlightenment! 😂

I have Fujichrome R25 Single-8 8mm film on which one of the color layers has spontaneously formed #Sierpinski #triangle #fractal like patterns, all over the whole 15m roll.

UPDATE JUNE 2026:
I just got another film with same kind of patterns, undeveloped 16mm microfilm.

two movies based on the film roll were released in april 2026

Printing Nat(a Cyborg)'s Sierpinski pyramid, and hot damn is this a badass looking model or what?

Even cooler, each layer is a continuous curve, so this is printing in spiral vase mode. Neat!

I'm printing using a 0.6mm nozzle, using the 0.15 layer height "Finn" version, in dual color PLA. You can get the model yourself at: https://www.printables.com/model/2311-spiral-vase-mode-sierpinski-pyramid
