Controls Click the start button to set things in motion.
A Left click will add a warning 'stay away' boid to the display. The slider bar controls the boids radius. Beleve it or not there is order to the apparent maddness above, those boids are not just flying around aimlessly, they are actualy trying to solve a ploblem. The motion of the darts above is controled mostly by an algorithm that is designed to simulate flock behavior, in particular it is a implementation of the boids algorithm. In this implementation Yellow darts siting still are marking significant locations.
