Why open it
A playable post using a deliberately simplified neighborhood model. Move unhappy shapes and compare the patterns produced under different rules. The strength of the piece is the connection between a small local instruction and a larger outcome; it is not a complete explanation of real housing segregation.
Take a question with you
After trying a rule, write down one real-world factor the model leaves out. Distinguish what the demonstration shows from what it cannot establish.
