First day
The main result coming from our sessions on the first day would be the awareness of the uniqueness of each individual agent within a network. This made us realize that to understand networks, you need to understand the agents.
Interesting about the dynamics of the group was the way group members tended to ask our moderator Matt permission about altering the code, especially because of the way the software was structured for the very reason of giving us agency towards the behavior of our flowers!
Second day: Walls can be good!
Today we found out that walls can help our garden to survive. But it completely depends on where it is. So good fences can make good neighbours in our walled gardens. We added the structure of a walled garden to our configurations, and also put them on the floor instead of on the table. When a flower was outside the garden, it could only transmit value, but not receive it. The flowers inside the garden could change their patterns by receiving value from the flowers outside the garden. This made it crucial for the flowers outside the garden not to be close to eachother to survive.
