Built for a web-based musical instrument hackathon while at the Recurse Center. Built on top of the p5 flocking demo.

Usage: Click screen to spawn boids. Make sure your computer sound is on. (May not yet work on mobile.)

Warning: If you add a gagillion boids, the page may get laggy or stop playing altogether. I'm pretty sure this is a Tone.js limitation (well, a "my current usage of Tone.js" limitation, specifically!), and if you have an idea of how to work around it, please let me know! In the meantime, simply refresh your screen to start fresh (or un-toggle "wrap world" to let some of your flocks fly away).
