 I see it in my head as a sort of quivering blob of data, with holes in it and arms reaching out and bits in the middle suddenly disappearing, and it inching around, blindly, in the virtual void. The bits that are mysteriously similar to the other bits suddenly bunching together, as if they were magnetic.

It's a graph, but it looks alive. You could plot it and watch it move around IRL with Grafana or something. Would be fascinating to watch. 
 The amount of data and computation needed to watch it real-time would be huge.  But it would be super cool.

Maybe we could bake graph traversal algorithms into Aedile and make it a data science tool. 🤔
