Lots of news with LifeFLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Now each creature can have its own personality or behavior. Still pretty basic to start, but it's fun to play with and the core is there to construct cool new functionality!!! :)
Also, the creatures now continue to live and move even after leaving their areas and returning.
Furthermore, there is now a clearer description, and various other improvements.
You can play with it yourself at life.worldsowisdom.com/flow/.
You can see a sample specimen at LifeBANK.
And you can watch demo videos below:

Rock & Roll!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Aerogel is a synthetic porous ultralight material derived from a gel, in which the liquid component of the gel has been replaced with a gas.[1] The result is a solid with extremely low density[2] and low thermal conductivity. Nicknames include frozen smoke,[3] solid smoke, solid air, or blue smoke owing to its translucent nature and the way light scatters in the material. It feels like fragile expanded polystyrene to the touch. Aerogels can be made from a variety of chemical compounds.[4]
