Swarm Chemistry Experiment 4

Yet more output from my embryonic Flex / Flash implementation of Hiroki Sayama's Swarm Chemistry model (http://bingweb.binghamton.edu/~sayama/SwarmCh… More combining composite particles with occasional weird orbiting artefacts (at around 43" there's a figure of eight orbit in the lower left quarter). Sometimes there's a nice surface tension effect when they combine. I'm waiting for the little chaps to become sentient and start posting videos of me programming to YouTube! These have been treated in After Effects for speed and colour. Having said that, my software is now pretty nippy and its output doesn't need speeding up a great deal.
