Thanks for the information - it does help to show the flow.

That's fluorescent polystylene particles mixed into slime mould. you can imagine it's like particles injected into your blood vessels. They are transported as blood (for slime mould) flows through the veins.As they are articially…
Anita commented on Soichiro Tsuda's video
Thanks for this amazing film! What exactly are the moving particles? Are they transmitting information or actually building the tip? And is this in real time? Sorry about all the questions, but this is utterly fascinating!

We may start a…
