Hoff Research, Isomorph model 01.
A recursive Game of Life, zoomable forever. Every cell is itself a machine running the same rules.
The display is an altimeter: depth 3 means one generation at the surface is 4.4×1013 generations down here. Every point has an address: the link opens that exact point.

Tap any key: the display says what it did. On the strip, shift gives each key the second function printed in ink. The moon key calms everything down.
