Highly inefficient code, I can only imagine how many hours you must have worked on this, but I like how color is the guiding principle behind the circuit (it makes it feel more "electricity" like) and it's really beautiful to look at.</p></div>Stefan Gabrielstag:support.nodebox.net,2012-11-01:Comment/482666212020-04-25T01:12:18Z2020-04-25T01:27:46ZUsing NodeBox to Make Working Circuitry<div><p>Thanks, Stefan!</p>
<p>Yes, inefficient is an understatement. It's what I call a ponarv, a project of no apparent redeeming value. But I do think it's beautiful to look at - and kind of magical.</p>
<p>In theory you could build arbitrarily complex circuitry that could do just about anything with this technique - a working calculator, a Turing machine, etc. But anyone who attempted it would probably end up in a rubber room.</p>
