Probably not everyone's cup of tea. I had open slices of kiwi in my fridge under cellophane wrapping for the last couple months because of a project in product photography.

That course has long since passed, but I forgot about the kiwis I left on the bottom shelf. Instead of trashing them right away, I thought they would be interesting to photograph and maybe serve as some unique stock for those who like to create darker forms of art.

On a sidenote, if someone could help educate me on the decaying process this poor kiwi was subjected to, I would very much appreciate it =p

I don't think the mold would listen to me if I told it to be green like the kiwi =p

you could always try... thinking better about talking to it outloud, makes me understand why people looks at me when I talk to everything that has no voice :XD:
It's my own developed religion to think everything can listen to us :P

These days you can just tell those people you're talking on your bluetooth cell phone =D

I've seen some documentaries though where scientists really try to prove (or disprove) that things like plants can "feel" the environment around them, where some people even claim they react positively to certain types of music...

and what's your conclusion? yes or no? lol

bluetooth cell phone haha. I could, but sometimes it's kinda funnier to see their faces when I say the truth.

Let's see, an exercise:
What are you doing right now?
I'm sending a mail, folding some paper tags and thinking what else I have to do, appart from the obvious of answering DA :P

No conclusion really, I just find these types of documentaries interesting. Did you know that scientists recently discovered "zombie ants"? Check this article out: [link]

Not doing much else at the moment, trying as always to keep up with my messages which I just managed to get under 5000 =p

I wouldn't call it fame, but for a good part of last year I did not post much on dA for personal reasons. Meanwhile the messages kept piling up, and at the same time, I was lucky enough to get 2 Daily Deviations. That's where most of my messages come from, and as a matter of principle, I do not like to delete messages from people who faved my work without taking the time to visit their page. So that makes catching up a whole lot more time-consuming, but still, there are not many people who leave random comments on my page asking how I'm doing, so I'm happy to reply to your comments whenever time permits :)
