I have started experimenting with a discrete small number of states system which produces Turing patterns. This one is a 3 state system. I'm thinking if I can get good designs they would be printable with old school rotary screen print fabric printing technology, because of the limited number of colours.

At each time step each pixel counts the numbers of pixels in each state within circles of various size around itself, and decides what state to transition to. So if there are a lot of blue pixels nearby the pixel would decide to become blue state but blue pixels further away inhibit it, for example.
