Learn to design and build a complete working computer using Wireworld, a 2D cellular automaton with just four states, in this 31-minute conference talk. Start by understanding the fundamental rules of Wireworld and observe how "electrons" move through the system. Progress through constructing essential components including logic gates, adders, memory circuits, and control circuits, all implemented using Wolfram Language. Discover how these simple cellular automaton rules can be combined to create complex computational systems, culminating in the construction of a fully functional computer architecture from basic building blocks.
