''Everything around us is alive. The forest, the park, the river. Unfortunately, we often forget this far too quickly. We keep striving for simplicity and digitalization, but forget the living beings around us. | |||
With my project "An Intelligent Organism Changes Our Perception" I want to investigate if an Intelligent Organism can build an emotional bond with a human being and if this human being thereby values the nature around him more.'' | |||
== '''Background:''' == | |||
''When I first saw Physarum, I was somewhat put off by its shape and color. The association (See part []) with my memories triggered (disgust, amazement, etc.). | |||
However, when I saw the first progress in the growth of Physarum, (See day...) this perception changed abruptly. | |||
Whenever I didn't see Physarum for a long time, I went as soon as possible to the place where it was stored and checked how it was doing. | |||
Exactly the same development I saw with my friend who was also a little bit deterred by Physarum at the beginning, but obviously got closer and closer. So she started to send photos and to look after him. | |||
This observation gave me the idea that at first we associate Physarum in our mind with negative terms and images, but with the time we took care of him, the emotional attachment and thus the appreciation towards an organism increased''. | |||

But also with the chips something has happened, Physarum has grown over the one piece of the chips, but it doesn't really look like he likes it. | But also with the chips something has happened, Physarum has grown over the one piece of the chips, but it doesn't really look like he likes it. | ||

But things are also progressing quite a bit on the jar, as you can see Physarum has grown up the entire jar.

Also in the box it goes forward, Physarum spreads more and more and is already much further than the labyrinth. | Also in the box it goes forward, Physarum spreads more and more and is already much further than the labyrinth. | ||
In the one Petri dish, it really takes off. The Physarum is growing over the edge. When I wanted to take it out of the refrigerator, I had to pull it off with some force so that it would detach from the refrigerator. | In the one Petri dish, it really takes off.

For an idea i thought it would be cool to colour the physarum. So i tooked some oat flakes and coloured them blue. | For an idea i thought it would be cool to colour the physarum. So i tooked some oat flakes and coloured them blue. | ||
