For people like me wondering what a "boid" is:

I suppose you could also imagine it as a way to say "bird" with an accent?

The site linked in the video description is worth taking a look at for the rules of Boids by its original creator, Craig Reynolds, as well as for if you want more Boids or flocking in general.
