I need more advanced features than NetLogo can provide, so I'm jumping ship. Nonetheless, look at the little speakers and hearers I designed! A hearer turns red if communication failed. Poor little guys.

Find me and Julie Nijs at the CogLing days in Antwerp next Thursday. We have lots to say about individual variation in linguistics. And about this guy in a red bodysuit.
