The Art of Code
summary
From Conway's Game of Life to deep dreaming and live coding with Sonic Pi, concrete examples dominate: glider gun and NAND gate show logic built inside Life, Google’s 2015 deep dream produces unsettling image amplification, and Sonic Pi runs parallel live loops for performance. Esoteric experiments include a 128-language polyglot quine and visual/culinary languages Piet and Chef. A parody language called Rockstar becomes Turing-complete, racks up ~2,000 GitHub stars overnight, spawns Scala/Rust/Python compilers, and offers a Rockstar interpreter at codewithrockstar.com.
