Symbiosis/\Dysbiosis: Sentience
Scene One: MOTH
THE GUESTS FIND THEY HAVE EMERGED FROM CHRYSALIS WITHIN A DENSE FOREST. STRANGE SOUNDS AND LOW-FREQUENCIES SURROUND THEM. A DENSE FOG FILLS THE AREA. AS THE GUESTS COME TO TERMS WITH THEIR NEW SURROUNDINGS, THEY HEAR SINGING-LIKE SOUNDS NOT TOO FAR FROM WHERE THEY STAND THAT DRAW THEIR ATTENTION TO THEIR RIGHT. FLOATING IN THE AIR IS A GIANT SILK MOTH TURNING TO FACE THE GUESTS. THE MOTH'S LARGE BLACK EYES GLEAM AS THEIR ANTLER-LIKE ANTENNAE GENTLY TURN.
(surprised to see humans emerging from their chrysalis, Moth wonders aloud)
"...How have YOU come to be?"
Moth is still slightly confused by these visitors and their sudden appearance; Moth is curious and mumbles a bit to themselves, recognizing that the Guests are Human.
MOTH
"Well, you are an invasive species after all…"
Moth's head tilts as they survey the situation and speak to the Humans,
"We are invasive here... We are not meant for here, yet here we are.
The forest needs you to SEE.
The forest…. We don't have much time."
A thrumming can be heard and felt by the Humans.
The Moth's upper set of hands makes a tree form in the air above the humans.
"You must locate the Great Tree. We can take you below.
Look for sounds..."
-Moth's multiple hands move in a circular pattern-
"...They may appear like this..."
Moth gestures -the Humans see glyphs above Moth's hands while a pleasant tone is heard. The Moth's 3rd eye begins to glow.
"Look for them as they may help you... We are all connected."
Pointing at the Humans with one hand while sweeping upward with another hand and pointing to the left with one of their other hands, Moth tells the Humans,
"You must climb The Steps of Ganoderma to enter the Queendom to
find the Mycelial Entity. She will help you see."
Moth carefully studies each of the Humans,
"Will you do this?"

Into the New Nature
Travelling without moving into the Mycelium Network with Nanotopia.
Mycelium bio-sonification through modular synthesis. Electrodes are placed within Ganoderma lucidum aka Reishi. The electrodes detect micro fluctuations in conductivity between 1000 t0 100000 of a second. This biodata is then translated to MIDI & CV enabling Humans to hear the Mycelium.
Relax into the Mycelium Network...
Prior to lift-off we will show our set-up and then fade into reactive TouchDesigner visuals. Thank you for tuning in.
Generative TouchDesigner visuals react/respond to the mycelium biodata.
Spaceship controls:
Flute/Pluck/Bow/Percussive sounds= Mutable instruments Plaits & clones: Atom & Piques
Paths, branches, roots = Qu-Bit's amazing Bloom (fractal sequencer)
Make Noise= Morphagene, René, Tempi, Pressure Points
Along with= Pittsburgh Instruments, Doepfer, Moog(s), Korg (keystep to Mother32), Erica Synths.
Visuals both chance & purposeful:
