Two chemicals, diffusing and reacting. No plan, no blueprint — just simple rules repeated thousands of times until pattern emerges from nothing.

Three parameter sets, three personalities. Spots that divide like cells. Coral mazes that branch and connect. Amber worms that weave through dark ground.
What does self-organization look like? It looks like this — order arriving uninvited.
