This log recorded the process of experimenting with an one cellular organism ‘slime molds’ to build a three dimensional glass art installation. The idea was inspired by the movie ‘Life’, which advocates people to have respect and fear for all creatures or they will be destroyed by their arrogance and ignorance. The experiments are mainly about trying to awake the organism and observe the survival conditions of it. I collected samples and regrow them in petri dishes under different kinds of living environment. The experiment results were not satisfying but I concluded several potential reasons for why the organism didn’t grow well.
