If you now take many active colloids, they are likely to meet in the ‘shadows’. But wait, there is no space for everyone!
Therefore, compared to a scenario with homogeneous lighting (where light is consistent and not too intense everywhere), smaller but more stable groups form.

And, surprise surprise, they do! You can see from this video that an active colloid moves in a hologram, following the dark regions between light spots. 💡
It's a bit like when you move from one beach umbrella to another to avoid getting sunburnt. ⛱️

What better way to start this journey on 🦋 than sharing our latest work?
We studied how a complex environment influences the formation of groups in active colloids. How did we do it?
