Summary: This recording illustrates the growth of a synthetic oscillating plasmodium from a single food node in a multiplicative manner. When all of the nodes are covered, the plasmodium shrinks to form a network that approximates the family of neighbourhood proximity graphs. Later on, the multiplicative behaviour is re-initialised to cover the area within the food nodes. |
