The Nature of Code

The Nature of Code explores how natural systems and behaviors—like the movement of animals, flocking, or growth patterns—can be simulated using programming. It combines principles from biology, physics, and mathematics to create digital models that mimic real-world phenomena. By understanding and coding these processes, developers can generate more realistic animations, visualizations, and interactive environments. Essentially, it’s about translating the complex, dynamic patterns of nature into algorithms, enabling computers to emulate the elegance and complexity of the natural world in creative and meaningful ways.
