Anyone interested in this should also check out Rudy Rucker & John Walker’s work on cellular automata [1]. These guys were obsessed with ants, hence ‘fourmi’ labs, fourmi meaning ‘ant’ in French. Both of these guys have done incredible things. Rucker wrote the Ware tetralogy and Walker owned/engineered AutoCAD. Rucker also wrote ‘The Hacker and the Ants’ where the protagonist (basically Rudy himself) takes on a virus which manifests as a virtual ant. Really quirky story, well worth reading.
