alt Hacker NewsCan someone tell me why cellular automata are suddenly everywhere? I've seen ~10 articles regarding them in the last month.

Because the space of people interested in such things is relatively small and so a single article has knock on effects where a reader of the article or a blogger sees it and starts exploring the space and posts more about it, increasing the exposure some more.
Possibly because SIGGRAPH is coming up and these were papers submitted to that conference.
