As I am trying to explore ways of reversing the interspecific hierarchical pyramid, I am coming to the realisation that one of the reasons why humans see unicellular organisms, which are beyond a doubt the most fundamental members of the earth, lower than themselves, is because of their size. Thus I am looking for ways for equalising our sizes. | As I am trying to explore ways of reversing the interspecific hierarchical pyramid, I am coming to the realisation that one of the reasons why humans see unicellular organisms, which are beyond a doubt the most fundamental members of the earth, lower than themselves, is because of their size.

I am going to try and grow the Slime Mold on my table, but I believe it can only grow to a certain size. Moreover, this won't effectively contribute to the message I am trying to convey. Thus, I will be amplifying the Physarum's size artificially. My spherical Ikea table lamp will hopefully suffice to do this. The resulting projection will only be a shadow across the walls of my room, however I believe shadows can be more intimidating than the thing itself and | I am going to try and grow the Slime Mold on my table, but I believe it can only grow to a certain size.
