Mycomimetic Futures
A synthetic Tripreport on Fungal Architecture and the Art of CoOperation
*
A synthetic Tripreport rendered in Song and Vision.
Musical representation of the mycopunk.substack article:
tripping forest _and sites of multible perspectives
They leave the research station at dawn, which is optimistic given that nobody really slept.
Lyrics:
[Sparse percussion. Breathing sounds. Forest ambience building.]
Come.
Come back home.
Breathe with us.
You went far.
Saw too much -
but found a way -
Yes, We See.- We also went.
Million days and Hours spent.
Records full - hours long.
You spoke in code, you spoke in song.
Did we get it?
What we need?
Did we catch -
The imaginal seed?
(Yeah.)
Yes, We did.
We saw the frame.
Nothing with it - stays the same.
Walked the gradient, right, - to the edge.
In the space where answers pledge -
Saw the structure crystal-clear,
All solution’s , they are here!
Not the first to see this way,
But We’re the ones alive today
Won’t be last to understand,
Who now have to build this up by hand!
Build the lattice! Let it breathe!
Cities learning how to live!
No extraction - we can weave
Systems that regenerate _ and give!
Co Operation lights the way!
The interface is here to stay -
Gradient zones respond to call!
The exostructure holds us all!
Saw the futures - dark and bright,
collapse and thriving- side by side,
Found the choice that tips the fight -
Communities that don’t divide!
Saw - alien insects building high,
Civilizations in the sky -
Virtual ecosystems glow,
In a Pattern - now - to grow!
The mycelium - does - sing its song,
Partnership for weak and strong -
Fourhundred fifty -
millionyears of code,
Co Operation is the ever lasting mode!
Mapped the networks underground,
Reciprocity, we found -
where the trees do trade and share,
Mutual webs of resilience and care!
(resilience and care!)
Going home!
Going home!
A Seed of Mind -
now in our chest!
Going home!
Going home!
A Time to build what we saw best!
Scaffold rising! Framework sound!
Gradients, where , WE all are found -
Life support at every scale!
This is structure that won’t fail!
No Monuments that stand alone,
More a Living, breathing, home -
Nothing’s keeping us apart,
Where the Co-Operation .. - is the art!
(Co-Operation .. - is the art!)
From Forest floor to cosmic light,
A Pattern showed us how to write -
From Crystal time to elders tree,
In this relationship we’re free!
Form the scaffold! Let it weave!
Partnership is what we breathe_
The City is learning how to thrive!
Keep the whole of Earth alive!
(Keep the whole of Earth alive!)
Mycoformed - not on command!
Frameworks rising - take this hand -
Unfold the Gradient - not rigid line!
The future’s here - the future’s fine!
Going home (going home)
Scaffold grow (pattern flow)
Build it true (build it new)
Me and you (me and you)
Let’s go home.
(Yeah.Let’s go home.)
(home)
