This is a JavaScript implementation of the simulations presented in the paper Collective Motion of Moshers at Heavy Metal Concerts. Playing around with it, you can imagine yourself the master of hundreds of heavy metal emos bashing into eachother in some dingy club late a night. What couldn’t be more fun?

More details are available at Itai Cohen’s group website including videos of mosh pits, full simulations, and a brief description.
