I first read about this simulation in a blog post several years ago, and the results really surprised me. I programmed my own version using p5.js while working on a video for Comingle exploring the nature of wealth inequality.
You can run the simulation yourself or just watch the video below.

I just discovered your site via the “Scale model of the universe” demonstration. I like the way you think.
