The Flock

A murmuration of agents with no fisherman. Each bird follows three rules (separation, alignment, cohesion) that map to three buttons (Dismiss, Ask-sibling, Act). Knots snap between hysteresis states. The net stacks during sleep. The strange attractor shapes the probability landscape. Click to place an attractor. Watch the flock settle to Nash equilibrium.
