<p>Janglöckner: </p> <hr /> <div>'''Life-Support-Systems'''<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Abstract'''<br /> <br /> <br /> I define systems that serve the purpose of sustaining live of the participating organisms as life-support-systems. This definition distinguishes life-support-systems from the term habitat, which is the natural environment of an organism, in which it can find food, shelter and reproduce. Life-support-systems are artifical and meant to stabilize the parameters of life of the participating organisms. This can include parameters from a natural enviromnent, maybe even mimicking it, but it is not the directive of a life-support-system. <br /> <br /> When an organisms wants to leave its natural habitat and colonize or travel to another habitat in which it cannot sustain its life-parameters, it needs a life-support-system. In fiction there are interesting examples of this bare necessity: from Dracula, who has to sleep in soil of his homeland, that he ships in coffins to London so he can sustain his life there, to the fremen-suits of the natives of Arakis, the desert planet in Frank Herbert‘s Dune, who use sophisticated wearables to survive in conditions of extreme heat and draught.<br /> <br /> My intention is to design a life-support-system that will sustain the life of a fungus for as long as possible. <br /> <br /> Based on the theory that a fungus will grow indefinetly, as long as it is provided with enough food and has no physical boundaries¹, I grow Pleurotus Ostreatus and Pleurotus Djamor in liquid culture. This theory opposes the opinion that fungi are subject to a process called senescence or biological ageing that leads to loss in vigor and the eventual death of a individuum².<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;div style=&quot;color:#72bf44;&quot;&gt;'''Directive 1:'''&lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> Let the fungi grow in a shape that makes it easier for hominina to relate to it. The shape should be appealing and spark empathy.<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;div style=&quot;color:#ce181e;&quot;&gt;'''Directive 2:'''&lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> Investigate and search for partners to the fungi, that can supply the needed resources to sustain life.<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;div style=&quot;color:#ce181e;&quot;&gt;'''Directive 3: '''&lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> Design a system that sustains the live of the fungi and their partner for as long as possible.<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;div style=&quot;color:#ed1c24;&quot;&gt;Directive 4:&lt;/div&gt;<br /> <br /> Prove that there is no such thing as senescence for fungi and that the effect described as such can be prevented in a laboratory set-up.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Methodology'''<br /> <br /> <br /> Two fungi in the same genus Pleurotus ostreatus and djamor are cultivated in liquid culture. The formation of clusters is controlled by media formulation and by pressure of the aeriation-system.<br /> <br /> [[File:0516_1.jpg|400px]]<br /> [[File:sphere.JPG|400px]]<br /> <br /> [[File:Closeencounter@arselectronicafrontalview.jpg]]<br /> <br /> [[File:Close encounter@arselectronica.JPG]]<br /> <br /> [[File:Babyandfungus.jpg|400px]]<br /> <br /> [[File:Closeencounter vilnius.JPG]]<br /> <br /> <br /> '''¹''' see page 206 ''Mycelium is a hologram''&lt;nowiki&gt;; &lt;/nowiki&gt;'''Radical Mycology'''&lt;nowiki&gt;; Peter McCoy &lt;/nowiki&gt;Chthaeus Press ISBN 978-0-9863996-0-2<br /> <br /> '''² '''see page Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms Paul Stamets</div>
