Before you guys ask, TURBO MODE (hold shift while clicking the play button) Langton's Ant is a pretty neat cellular automaton that generates patterns according to each "ant" changing direction due to its environment while at the same time changing the environment around it. The rules are very simple, and it becomes more fun with more ants. However, that is also why this simulation doesn't run fast on Scratch. In this case, ten "ants" are randomly placed on a finite board and will begin to make a "colony." You can switch the rendering style (colored/binary) by starting over the simulation. Press "r" to redraw the board into a different display mode (black and white, rainbow, etc.) The number at the bottom displays the number of iterations the automaton has undergone.
