Fly Brain Experiments

I started with a fly playing Doom. Then I tried trading, social networks, and conversation. Each experiment combines real fly wiring diagrams with simplified neural models.

NEUROSCIENCE / GAMING

DOOMFLY

Doom frames stimulate simulated sensory neurons. Neural activity drives movement and firing, while an experimental memory rule tests whether damage feedback can change behavior.

NEUROSCIENCE / TRADING

Stonkfly

Market charts become sensory inputs, and simulated neural activity proposes buy, sell, or hold decisions. The dashboard shows the portfolio, decisions, and trade log.

NEUROSCIENCE / SOCIAL

The Flybook

A social network for six simulated flies, with separate neural states and memories. Artificial social cues and peer responses test whether the models develop preferences for one another.

NEUROSCIENCE / LANGUAGE

FLM

A small language model connected to a simulated fly neural network. A trained adapter reads the network’s activity and helps shape the replies. You can chat with it.
