I digress,Physarum polycephalum aren't fungi, but since they are already mentioned on this thread.

Strange how threads tend to grow wild.

I always wanted to experiment with Physarum polycephalum in my garden, since I saw a documentary about them about 25-30 years ago.

But alas, I have a watch, they have the time. So I guess I talk to them and their brethren six feet under somewhere in my future.

As a primer:

Advances in Physarum Machines, Adamatzky, Andrew (Ed.)

Physarum polycephalum is quite bright for a mold.

Speaking of mold, there is a growing body of artists working with it.
