After looking at Conway's game of life I have been looking at other forms of cellular automata. This lead me to discoverĀ Langton's ant, which is a different kind of cellular automata where an agent (namely an ant) is used to turn the squares on or off as it travels around a grid.
The rules of Langton's ant are quite simple. The ant simply follows two rules as it moves around the grid.
