In the history of the world, the phenomenon of writing arises when the spoken form reaches such prestige that it needs to take a written form. Its function is the perpetuity of a message over time.
A writing system is a type of symbolic system, used to express elements or expressible statements.
All writing systems known in the world have been and are developed by humans as from their needs, but what happens if human facilitates this system to other species?
IDEA...
Using the experiment conducted in SS2018 [1] with the point of view from physarum as a pictorial tool, I want to develop a writing exercise with Slime Mold. (I am considering the creation of a typographical anatomy or writing system based on the nutritional behavior of Physarum and its primordial structure) ( Or... taking a well based typography and make physarum write messages with it)
Start
The first attempt at cultivating Physarum in order to begin the project (in the common way: Agar+Oat flakes) was negative. There was a proliferation of a red bacteria.
The second try was successful. We have now a strong and healthy Slime Mood to start with.
It is necessary to keep growing Physarum using the usual method (Agar+Oat flakes) so that samples of Physarum are always available for developing the experiment.
