@jplebreton Is the new term "algorithmic art"?

Here are some of my experiments:

@bnut BAH! The sticky edges were due entirely to a bug in my projection code. The box size is just slightly less than 1 so that it fits in my collision detection grid and when projecting z, I failed also to project x and y. Now they no longer stick which leaves the cube edges somewhat less visible.

Here's a changing projection shape.

I let the simulation run for several minutes before recording. The edges do appear to be a bit sticky causing the flocks have a bias to moving parallel to them, but particles are only briefly trapped there before being pulled away.

The particles try to move in 3-D, but then their position is constrained so that z = abs(x).

Still seems to work with this particular set of forces, though it's not all that easy to see in this low-res, short animation.
