Abstract
We consider cellular automata on a square lattice with nearest-neighbor inputs. Our automata are quenched mixtures of two Boolean functions. We investigate if there is a phase transition as a function of the degree of mixing, particularly if one chooses one rule as forcing and the other as non-forcing.
