zurich agents

«zurich agents» is an agents simulation of 20’000 pedestrians without a brain. They are literally stupid, yet together they create beauty. They do not know where they come from and where they go. They can walk and swim, they cannot fly. They walk through streets as long as they are in the city and aimlessly walk into the fields when leaving it. 

While this work has mainly aesthetical and experimental intents, opens a critical perspective onto world of simulation, which tries to simulate and predict everything and everybody, but often fails to determine the right parameters and their value to achieve accurate results.

This work was created with Processing.
