Accelerated Microbial Corrosion by #Magnetite and Electrically Conductive Pili through Direct Fe0-to-Microbe Electron Transfer https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/anie.202309005

"#Iron is well-known for #rusting... Some #bacteria are able to decompose Fe anaerobically in a process referred to as #electrobiocorrosion. The sediment-dwelling #bacterium #Geobacter sulfurreducens uses electrically conductive #protein threads for this purpose"

I'm finding myself thinking about how Mastodon might be (appropriately) used as a performance/#exhibition platform. I work sometimes w a collective of artists, several of whom work with #ephemerality (undocumented #performance, but also things like #fading, #rusting, #decay) & wondering if there have been examples of ppl using auto-disappearing toots/scheduled deletion(? might be the wrong terms) for performance/exhibition on here - anyone seen or heard about anything like that?
