Prompt: "Flocking"

Going back in time a little here but I feel like I would be remiss if I didn't do anything for this prompt. The amounts of cohesion, separation, and alignment that these little boids have all vary with time according to sine waves with the same frequency. High cohesion = low separation and alignment, and so forth. Maybe more interesting in a longer video but I needed to get it under 10 MB to upload it. :)

Little white "boids" fly around on a black screen. Their behavior changes over time. Sometimes they are all close and swarming together, sometimes they are all trying to get away from each other, and sometimes they are all flying in the same direction.
