ORIGIN OF LIFE
Phototaxis, directional swimming towards the light, is a widespread behaviour in marine plankton. About 80% of all marine invertebrates with a dispersing larval stage show positive phototaxis at the beginning of the dispersal phase. Following this positive phototactic stage, older larvae often become negatively phototactic. We study the mechanisms of both positive and negative phototaxis in Platynereis and other marine invertebrate larvae.

<<For the first time in history, researchers at the Max Plankton Institute in the Netherlands have recorded piano music practised by a common water flea.
First light of the phenomenon was obtained using darkfield microscopy>>
Concept
For the first idea was simply interactive with Daphnia. I thought it looks great when daphnia be projected as a dog size! Actually they are too tiny when we want to play with them.
But in my experience, they are sensitive about temperature, quality of water, density, oxygen and light.
They are easy to die and easy to ill. So they need time to recover and take a rest. 10 minute is still short. But at least, not for human for Daphnia need some time! During 10 min breaks visitor could think about living creature as like as human, not LEGO or TOY they are.
