Physarum
Thousands of particles sniff, turn and reinforce trails.
What is this?
A generative simulation inspired by Physarum polycephalum. Simple moving agents deposit a chemical trail and follow the gradients created by the rest of the population.
How it works
Agents sample trail intensity ahead and to the sides, rotate toward stronger signals, move forward and deposit more trail. Diffusion and decay turn those local choices into branching networks.
