Ich möchte mich mit der visuellen Struktur des Schleimpilzes in Form von experimenteller Fotografie auseinandersetzen. | Ich möchte mich mit der visuellen Struktur des Schleimpilzes in Form von experimenteller Fotografie auseinandersetzen. | ||
Dabei geht es nicht nur um die Gestalt des Myzels, sondern auch um die Umgebung, die er durch sein Dasein verändert. Eine Beobachtung von symbiotischer, sich gegenseitig bedingender Lebensformen und Lebensräume. | Dabei geht es nicht nur um die Gestalt des Myzels*, sondern auch um die Umgebung, die er durch sein Dasein verändert.

I will let the Physarum grow on the gelatin layer of a negative film. The film gelatin is replacing the agar agar and offers the Physarum a floor for growth. Initial tests have shown that the slime mold changes the gelatin layer, dissolves it partially, changes its color and blurs with the structure of the mycelium. A new visual picture of the Physarum emerges - its interaction with the environment translated into abstract images. I would like to experiment with already developed film, photo paper and unexposed film (which is developed after the inoculation with Physarum). Afterwards it get´s visible by a scanning process. | I will let the Physarum grow on the gelatin layer of a negative film.

In order to bring the pictures and my thoughts together, I can imagine using either a book, zine or digital document or making a short film in the form of a series of photographs (see photo film) with sound pieces. This is then the second part of the project and will be specified by me after the first part - creating the visual material and noting down my personal thoughts. | In order to bring the pictures and my thoughts together, I can imagine using either a book, zine or digital document or making a short film in the form of a series of photographs (see photo film) with sound pieces.

* da der Physarum kein richtiger Pilz ist, ist Myzel eigentlich das falsche Wort. Ich nutze es hier, um sein Geflecht zu beschreiben, mit dem er sich ausbreitet. | |||
because the physarum is not a real mushroom, mycelium is actually the wrong word. I use it here to describe the structure of the net of the growing physarum. |
