<p>Hi there and welcome! </p>
<p>I'm a career scientist - microscopy but I've dabbled in metal casting and silverwork since I was a kid and love doing a bit of lapidary.</p>
<p>Physarum isn't something I officially research- I got it in for lectures years ago, found it really amazing for public engagement and it's taken over.

<p>Physarum isn't something I officially research- I got it in for lectures years ago, found it really amazing for public engagement and it's taken over. I use the work equipment ( electron microscopes and laser scanning 'scopes ) for looking at it on quiet days - officially for publicity images but mainly because slime moulds are beautiful to look at inside ( well all cells are but myxos have weird on their side too ). Looks like I might even get a paper or two out of some of the playing</p>
<p>I've been directly investment casting with physarum on leaves and clay and since that makes a hell of a lot of waste ( If you know any uses of broken lumps of plaster moulds.. ) I wanted to find a way to work physarum into sand casting. I think I'm part way there but I need to smooth out the overall form so it'll come out of the sand</p>

<p>Hi Ian!</p>
<p></p>
<p>i'm an artist from Paris and your funwork is very inspiring for me as I'm also doing sculptures with and by Physarum.</p>
<p>Are you artist? Sorry if it's already written somewhere - I'm new here. </p>
<p></p>
<p>Happy New Year wishes to you!</p>
