“Manual of Evasion LX94” is a thought-provoking Dadaist film about time by the Portuguese director Edgar Pêra. It was shot in Lisbon in 1994 and stars Terence McKenna, Robert Anton Wilson and Rudy Rucker. Time is explored from many unusual angles, while Pêra fills the screen with a wide variety of bizarre and mind-warping imagery.

This educational video about cellular automata was filmed, narrated, and edited by Rudy Rucker in 1990, using some "CA Lab" software he worked on at Autodesk. Renamed "Cellab," the software and manual are available for free on Rucker's website, but certainly you can watch the video without using the software. Two-dimensional CA rules discussed include Langton's worm, the game of Life, Silverman's Brain, the Vote rule, the Rug rule, gas-simulating rules, and many others.

This is a video made by Rudy Rucker to demonstrate the 1990Autodesk program, "James Gleock's CHAOS: the Software."
