Belousov-Zhabotinsky Chemical Reaction-Diffusion Simulator

Generative Biology: BZ Chemical Waves

BZ Reaction Waves

Excitable Media & Morphogenesis

Observe a non-equilibrium chemical oscillator. As waves of concentration propagate, click and drag to paint chemicals, draw blockages, or use the "Scissors" tool to slice wave fronts and create self-sustaining spiral curls.
