3-color outer totalistic CA rule 12033342	absolute value of Fourier transform

This Demonstration explores the discrete Fourier transform of a grid of cells produced by 3-color outer totalistic cellular automata. You can choose to view either the absolute value of the Fourier transform or the imaginary part. A logarithmic scale is being used to enhance features of the Fourier transform.
