0303 collective behavior

 0303 collective behavior

the video today features a still of a recent blood moon and microscopy of a molecular biology experiment by graduate students at the @indian_institute_of_science 

it started with the video, then my troubles began. I ended up spending all day on it. the first version sounded too obvious (lots of intertwining echoing arpeggios.. duh). The second one sounded too much like Trent Reznor piano stuff, so I chucked it all and started over again. What came out sounds a bit jazzy, but suits the video, I think.

if the scientists want me to take it down I will.. and I'll just use the first one with no video. but I'll bet they have better things to do than yell at me.. they're busy doing groundbreaking science (and making worms look supercool on instagram videos). 

here's their article.. spoiler alert: it was serotonergic signaling that was the master regulator, not pheromones! can you believe it??
