Code in Action
My Downtown Business Club employs cellular automaton to effect the emergence of a suitable arrangement of companies in the building in an efficient manner as to benefit all participants positively. The 2 main rules for the code are:

Within a 2-dimensinal Moore neighbourhood:

Any cell (business) with fewer than two identical neighbours lives on to the next generation (on the Z-axis).

Any cell with more than two live neighbours (and hence will be drowned out) transforms a different cell in the next generation in order to compete.

The Downtown Athletic Club (DAC) to me represents the ideals of the American Way. "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness." The individual literally fights his way through societal strata until sufficiently distilled and purified, evolved and post-human, he emerges the "fittest". Worthy of self-reproduction and access to the elevated levels. The bedrooms where he may finally have his "American Dream."
To hack the Downtown Athletic Club, I have employed a business incubator as a collectivist social metaphor wherein the objective is not for any party to fail but for all to thrive. If one party is found unable to compete then he is able to transform into a new business model that would be successful.
