1) ants 2) sunflower biomorphs 3) voting
Future projects I've thought about: I'd like to design models for rapid selection of text by many people at once that could be used to allow a collective to interview a single person, ( I'm imagining something that operates like viral media but happening in real-time). This could be used remotely for running collective vox pop (on the street interviews) where people online get to decide what questions to ask people approached by a camera crew.
Forthcoming...
For my final project I would like to create an evolutionary model like sunflower biomorphs that allows a user to select a shape for a new evolutionary line. I'm thinking down the line of eventually using some sort of evolutionary schema that identifies key word associations in questions so that people can click on particular words within a sample question in order to encourage those words to pass on into the "next generation"... until a certain limit of uniformity had been reached and the "breeded" question could be asked.
For the shape assignment, I created a star. Here is a link.
Here is my smil test.
