In 1986, Craig Reynolds developed an algorithm aiming to model the flocking behavior of birds, which remains a cult method used in flock simulations today. In my initial study, the bird-oids (boids) have no rules or limitations, just chilling randomly on the screen. I call this initial version Wandering Simulator. There are several reasons why this fundamental simulation is difficult in Grasshopper and Python, our parametric design interface. In Grasshopper […]
