Par·ti·tion·ing

Heres a visualization of the previously mentioned space partitioning of a dual network. Yellow describes the space belonging to one curve set and grey the other.

Duals

As a continuation of the previous post, heres an exploration of some self organized dual networks. Threads are now split into two opposing sets. Agents along threads of the same set still try to bundle while avoiding agents belonging to the other set simultaneously. As before the magnitude and range of these cohesive and separative forces are being tinkered with real time in the video below.

The resulting nets serve as a non uniform skeleton for some space partitioning studies where each thread set occupies it's own continuous volume. Here's a look at the implicit surface between thread sets as the iso value shifts from positive to negative.
