Hello, on this channel I explore how to create stuff out of code. I hope you find some of it interesting!




Sebastian Lague

A small exploration of an algorithm inspired by ants, and some little experiments into simulating some of the behaviour of ants and slime moulds. I hope you enjoy!

The slime simulation project files are available here: https://github.com/SebLague/Slime-Simulation
