The connectome is used as fixed wiring. Activity is mapped straight to controls. Nothing changes over time.

Rating note

Real connectome data (FlyWire FAFB v783: 139,255 neurons, 15,091,983 directed pairs, real soma-anchor coordinates, predicted-neurotransmitter and region filters) rendered as a 3D graph viewer. Not L1: there is no neuron model anywhere in the app. Both the Bad Apple and DOOM modes are a GLSL vertex shader that projects video or game-frame luminance onto fixed neuron positions and turns each point on or off by a brightness threshold; no membrane potential, time constant, spike or state variable exists. The README says so directly ('El mapa no simula actividad biologica' / 'no modela respuestas neuronales'). Contrary to the upstream flag, this project is not thinly documented: the README is thorough and there are separate methodology and validation documents, so it is ratable rather than unrated.
