  1. Our blob seems to enjoy its petri dish and the oatmeal we're feeding it. Our 10yo is super hyped 😁 Definitely an experiment I'd recommend for kids, though changing the substrate every 3 days is kind of tedious.

  2. Day 1 - Day 3 of reanimating Physarum polycephalum aka slime mold aka the blob lol

    It's so cool how fast it wakes up and starts seeking food !😁

  3. "URBANFLOW.art" #Physarum #Simulation

    So my research and development is bearing fruit:
    Today I tried out using my new physarum force with SDF-text in the form of our Media·Art studios name UrbanFlow.art
    And together with several other forces this turned out beautiful!

  4. "Stream of Consciousness" · Physarum simulation

    From a diffuse field of feelings, ideas and outer impulses our mind creates streams, fields and rivulets of ideas and thoughts.
    Some solve complex problems, some decide what to wear or eat, most are circular movements without a real purpose.

    Quantum fields dancing.

  5. The bottom one doesn't look so hot, I think I overdid it with the oats and some local is overcompeting it, looks fuzzy around the edges.

    So:
    - don't pile more food than it can chew
    - use air filters (I'll try parafilm) and sterilize your tools better

  6. The blobs keep growing as I add more oats.

    It's so unusual seeing a single cell get this big. And look at the pattern on the center.

  11. Step 3 - It's Alive!

    Slime mold woke up and moved out of its paper and onto the oat. It's nomming and growing now.

    The two original sclerotia didn't activate, so I used 4 samples more with slightly different conditions. 2 of them are doing great, the others not so much.

    I didn't properly measure or jot any data down, so this isn't Science, but now I have a general idea of how this works and I can go for precision next time.

    8 year olds are better at this than me.

  16. Step 2

    The Physarum (I'm going to need 2 nicknames, feel free to contribute) was dormant on dry paper in its sclerotium form. I cut two pieces and added two drops of water to resurrect them. And some oats for breakfast.

    Now we wait. Good luck, Phil and Phyllis.

  21. Step 1

    Preparing a couple of Agar petris for an art excercise. I'll be trying to grow Physarum polycephalum.

    Considering this is my first attempt to kinda bioart, this could go from very wrong to somewhat not terrible. But it'll be fun sharing some pics.

  26. Myxomycetes in the wild! Gelukkig waren de medewandelaars snel overtuigd van hoe cool Le Blob wel is en konden we gewoon 10 minuten blijven bewonderen. De stam zat helemaal vol: 'n gelukkige slijmzwam :blobheart: #microbiology #myxomycetes #Physarum #leBlob

  27. @kf @Pikselfest

    In this recorded twitch stream from the PIKSEL 21 festival is an interesting presentation form Sarah Grant.

    twitch.tv/videos/1210930055

    The talk starts at 1 hour 50 minutes in this stream with te title "networks as material"
    After 5 minutes of introduction it gots very interesting.
    In 1:55 its about Physarum polycephalum. Real world experiments with this slime mold Physarum she made.

  28. Quand tout à coup, traversant la terrasse du "centre de village", indescriptible, indestructible… un blob !
    (cris d'effrois dans ton fil 😜 ) Physarum polycephalum.
