[FRIAM] A pretty cellular automata video

[Steve Smith]

I still have the relevant bits of the classic Esquire e-ink edition from

Maybe Klaus-Bosch sandscape art

is more apropos?

Using a Sand Art App <https://thisissand.com/> to drive it?

or just resort to an Etch A Sketch
<https://www.huffpost.com/entry/etch-a-sketch-anniversary_n_3581395>
instead?

Are we back to vector vs raster graphics?

Maybe a Tektronix 4013 <https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/4013> Green Screen
with an APL Keyboard?
