WHAT IS IT?
-----------
Simple play model with NetLogo. Turtles (the little moving arrows) can be used to draw nice random pictures ;-)
HOW IT WORKS
------------
Agents:
The agents (called turtles in NetLogo, which is the tool used for creating this) move randomly and leave a trace behind, which covers the whole area after some time.
Environment:
The chart '%Turtles at highest 5% of peaks' is not so important here. The black landscape on which the turtles are moving, is a mountain scape with peaks and valleys ...
HOW TO USE IT
-------------
Buttons, sliders and plots are self-explenatory .
Creating Art:
Press "setup, then press the Start button and witness how a nice painting drawn by some crazy turtles emerges. Kandinsky couldn't have done it any less exhilarating... :-)
RELATED MODELS
--------------
The model is so generic, that it could be related to any other agent-model with a more focussed functionality. Hence, from its current state, serving almost no purpose, it can easily be extended to do anything an agent-model could possibly do.
