Haferman Carpet

The Haferman carpet is the beautiful fractal constructed using string rewriting beginning with a cell [1] and iterating the rules
{0->[1 1 1; 1 1 1; 1 1 1],1->[0 1 0; 1 0 1; 0 1 0]} " src="https://mathworld.wolfram.com/images/equations/HafermanCarpet/NumberedEquation1.gif" style="height:54px; width:188px" /> |

(Allouche and Shallit 2003, p. 407).

Taking five iterations gives the beautiful pattern illustrated above.

This fractal also appears on the cover of Allouche and Shallit (2003).
Let
be the number of black boxes,
the length of a side of a white box, and
the fractional area of black boxes after the
th iteration. Then
The numbers of black cells after
, 1, 2, ... iterations are therefore 1, 4, 61, 424, 4441, 36844, ... (OEIS A118005). The capacity dimension is therefore
