Overview: A ‘bible‘ of experimental computing with spatially extended living substrates.Presents topics of complex systems, emergence, self-organization, mathematical machines in any easily understandable way.W.This book is devoted to Slime mould .Physarum polycephalum, which is .a large single cell capable for distributed sensing, concurrent information processing, parallel computation and decentralized actuation. The ease of culturing and experimenting with Physarum makes this slime mould an ideal substrate for real-world implementations of unconventional sensing and computing devices.. ..Th
