Following Kees Weijer’s studies into self-organization in social amoebae through oscillatory cAMP cell-cell signalling, this work investigates the behaviour of agents which move to follow periodic wavefronts of chemicals, but also themselves amplify the chemical signals. Genetic algorithms and machine learning techniques are used to navigate the rich space of possibilities.
