The image and file attached to this post are my final grasshopper files used to produce my swarm theory simulation. The system is broken down into four main components. Firstly the ‘swarm direction’ where a perlin graph is generated as a continuous curve, which the user is able to control the size and shape of. The next section is the ‘core points formation and attachment’ where randomly generated points are attached via a pull mechanism at different strengths to curves of numerous offset iterations. Following this is the ‘secondary point formation and attachment’ where more points are randomly placed and attached to offset curves, however this time curves which have been rotated. Finally is the ‘physics engine’ which controls the movement of all the points, stimulating cluster growth and applying spheres to contextualise the points.
