I made a new video using the same engine as the fish school simulation described in the post In This Virtual Fish Tank, You Make the Rules.

This video shows 5000 fish swimming while the weightings of the three behavioural rules vary using sinusoidal functions. I love the “borders” created as large fish schools collide, and fish attempt to escape along the plane of intersection.

Triumph of the Golden Rule was also linked to as recommended reading for MIT course 6.033 Computer Systems Engineering – one of the best compliments I’ve received. Thanks Evan!
