I like it when any of them go on tangents about things that they like, mostly Sana's tangents about astrophysics, Fauna's tangents on quantum mechanics and biology stuff, and Gura's tangent on Disney World.
@@Circ00mspice same. Her quantum mechanics lecture was quite nice too. I haven't heard it explained that way before. But I also never thought I'd ever listen to a quantum mechanics lecutire from a tree, I mean Kirin.
One year late but (man, she's graduating either way to become more personal so ima share this fact), Fauna attended the University of Washington at St. Louis with a major in biology that has a 12% acceptance rate.
Slime molds are simply amazing, there was an experiment where the slime mold was connected to a cable, transmitting electric signal from the slime to a music converter and I think transmitting a different signal back to the slime. The slime somehow adapted to this and based on this input output made music with a composer. And it was good music too! It rhythm, it had musical elements, it wasnt just noise like you could think. I think the university where the slime remade Tokyos infrastructure actually made the slime formally a professor. Simply amazing how clever slime is.

Another fun fact about slime molds that boggles my brain is the fact that every single patch of slime mold that you see is not a colony but rather an *absolutely ginormous* cell, a single cell that instead of undergoing mitosis like everything else, just keeps growing and making copies of its nucleus, to the point where 90% of the celular cytosol is nucleuses
My favorite thing about Fauna is when you first experience her it’s like “oh what a cute voice and seiso personality” and then you keep watching and it’s like “look at this genius goofball running around”
Nothing better than hearing someone explain something they roughly knew, but always ended with "I need to learn it more" just amazing stuff, sadly it's really rare at the present.
She reminds me of this girl I knew in college. Always talking about theories, biology, and other scientific topics even outside of class. But every now and then, she'll kind of stop talking, because she'll think I lost interest. I never did though. I found it adorable, and her information were also fascinating. I just wanted to listen to her talk because she was so passionate about her subjects.
thinking about this and cordyceps in the last of us, mostly around her talking point about "blasting them [slime mold] with cold air" i wonder how well the mutated strand of cordyceps fairs against something like that
Fungi, in general, do not like the cold. They like damp, warm, and nutrient rich environments in which they can continuously grow out their mycelium. The mycelium (think roots) can stretch over dozens of miles underground and is regarded as the true body of the fungi. The mushrooms you see above ground? Those are just nodes that took in lots of nutrition from a rich area. Those nodes, called "fruiting bodies" are also where spores release from and basically seed the soil with more fungi to grow more mycelium.
This calm and sweet vibe while talking about interesting biological topics and space stuff has greatly made Fauna probably my favorite of Council lately. It also doesn't hurt that she's probably among the more seiso idols. She's definitely not completely seiso, but compared to the others, she's pretty damn seiso. She doesn't even really curse much.
I'm pretty sure slime molds are also one of the few rare multi nucleate organisms, meaning that when they do a mitosis and duplicate they don't separate into two different cells at the end but stay as one big cell with many nuclei. This can result in some of the largest single celled organisms on the planet. Some cell types in our body can do this, muscles for example, but they're still one part of a larger creature as opposed to their own thing.
i've heard about the slime. finding the most efficient like facilitation of traffic in a network can be a really hard problem but the slime does it naturally
Biorhythms are very common observable cycles in many forms of life. Here, they are quite complex, and take place between mycelium cells, but they appear in every form of multicellular life. Since chemical reactions occur under fixed conditions at fixed rates, there are many reactions that can essentially function as a clock. Particular experiments that demonstrate basic chemical kinetics include the iodine clock reaction, in which colorless solutions of iodine species can mix with redox reagents in the presence of starch to create a dark blue solution of a triiodide-starch complex before cycling again. This happens at a fixed rate, and measuring that rate can inform the exact concentrations present. Hope I got this stuff right, it's been years since I studied that reaction specifically.
I had a slime mould experiment during an undergraduate course. Ah... memories... of slime mould running rampant in the storage cabinet and the lecturer shaking his head.
There are these thing that float on top of water and gives off oxygen. Just like trees. But in the water. Which was said that it helps give the world oxygen.
This was surprisingly interesting and helpful because when I was watching The Last of Us, I thought why was the zombie can alarm other zombie far away which match the information that Fauna gave.
The only issue with slime molds is that they cant "grow backwards" i.e they only get biger or die. so if you used one for computing you can turn a 0 to 1 but not a 1 to 0. it can complete a maze but not back out!
another cool fact about physarum polycephalum aka the slime mold, that fauna did hint at, if you stimulate it with electric shocks in specific frequencies, say a musical piece, it can respond with similar frequencies. If you were to amplify the electric impulses and run it through a speaker again, you could actually make out some parts of the music. On a related note, the city planning aspect, where it seemed to disagree with the transit system of the UK, has elevated the slime mold to become an honorary prof of a University. Now I'd be curious if she had some neat facts about a certain type of sea slug, that could regenerate its entire body, as long as it's head is intact and has access to nutrients. While regrowing it will live off of photo synthesis. Truly the real life Namekians, I might say.
I remember reading about that a long time ago!!! Yeah its nuts. Not only did they replicate it well, but they also may have made one that's theoretically more efficient?
I hope we can get more scientific education through Vtubers, be it fun facts/tangents of our kirin , or be it someone who dedicates their content to education Gods know us weebs could use some of it for sure, at least I sure as hell could
I miss Sana with this because while Fauna talks biology which fits her. Sana talks a lot about astronomy, she even one time talk about black holes and stuff for freaking long time 😂
Imagine kronni saying random time facts: Time can differ depending of the planet you are so... You are probably already dead from the perspective of an alien (Sorry for my bad english)
Exactly what I was thinking. It's either she is very passionate about molds and slime, or she too is a fan of the white Morgan Freeman. If she is, fantastic taste in UA-cam content.
I find it very coincidental that suddenly all my preferred streamers are talking about slime molds. Even though I keep hearing the same facts Ive enjoyed them all. Thanks for the clip now we just need Fauna to teach us about Thermophiles

Truly a Nature Warden moment. The quiet and wavy ambiance also helps.

I want just an hour of fauna give random nature facts so I can just drift off to sleep while listening
Well, we didn't get that today, but we did get an hour of cat noise ASMR from her today instead. Not quite what you were asking for haha 🙃
@@BaritoneMonkey on my way to watch that
wonderful idea

Good to know I'm not annoying, given how much I act like this.
The cutest "🤓"
I love your subtitling it somehow fits her cute talking style
I like this comfy biology class
I first discovered Fauna when she lectured me about string theory, now I'm here for slime mold facts? Please do more educational rants plz
Fauna is so cute when talking about molds and other stuff like that xD
God she’s so cute when she’s talking about science and trivia.
"Here's highly detailed interesting facts about Slime Molds! Also, how do I play game? 😵😇"
The Duality of Kirin
we really need Ame and Fauna to collab and nerd out for hours
Holonerds
Their expert discussion on mold would be one for the ages
If Sana was still around, Fauna and her could go on about space stuff probably.
I see she is also a Ze Frank enjoyer
she knows the power of SCIENCE.
she must've watched the Ze Frank video
What a relatable VTuber
thinking about this and cordyceps in the last of us, mostly around her talking point about "blasting them [slime mold] with cold air"

The next time I meet one of those scientists from the fictional game, I will ask them about it.

I really like Fauna going on biology tangents, and I predicted what she'd say about the slime molds lmao if you watch the playback.
Me: “There is absolutely NO POSSIBLE WAY that slime or mold could ever be cute!”
Slime mold: 0:08 🥺
That little zoom in when she said "it's very cool" was funny lol
My bio lab assistant can't be this cute?!

We need more science Fauna
I just want her to cover my a level chem course so I can actually understand everything
Never noticed how cute and adorable her inhale noises are.
Me who have learned this from zefrank: mmmmyes.
cute fauna talking lots about nature.
Little does she know, we could watch a 4 hour stream of her learning about mold.
i've heard about the slime. finding the most efficient like facilitation of traffic in a network can be a really hard problem but the slime does it naturally
I need a playlist of fauna just going full on nerdy girl with her science tangents
00:09 the similarity to A* pathfinding is wild.
I need to make my ref even colder then
Nice, another Fauna clipper. 🙏

the monster core is its brain :D
If only my school had science teacher exactly like Fauna, I would have enjoyed it more
Between fauna and zefrank, I'm pretty sure I've learned basically everything about those crazy snot lads.
We rockin with slime molds 🙂
I’m enjoying these random episodes of VSauce with Fauna
Fuana watched the zefrank video methinks
Ceres "Hank Green" Fauna
I had a slime mould experiment during an undergraduate course. Ah... memories... of slime mould running rampant in the storage cabinet and the lecturer shaking his head.
that's a pretty cool fact
Omg finally, another physarum polycephalum appreciator
slime molds do remember, they know about shrinkage

FAUNA SCIENCE PODCAST!!!!!!!!!!
LETS F*CKING GO!!!!!!!!
Cute. CUTE.
Are you telling me that the best way to know how to create new metro Networks is using ducking mold?!?!
It's very cool indeed.
The most knowledgeable vtuber: *Fauna*
So what you're saying that New York should've hired slime molds to design tge MTA
Anyone who isn't simply _amazed_ by Slime molds is incorrect
This was surprisingly interesting and helpful because when I was watching The Last of Us, I thought why was the zombie can alarm other zombie far away which match the information that Fauna gave.
I knew that reference, the Tokyo train.
this is the ze frank video lmfao
maybe i'm a slime mold too, i'm semi-intelligent and crazy
Did you know fungi are the Paul reveres of the plant world. Trees are talking to each other as we speak.
The only issue with slime molds is that they cant "grow backwards" i.e they only get biger or die. so if you used one for computing you can turn a 0 to 1 but not a 1 to 0. it can complete a maze but not back out!
so how did you improve your rail systems efficiency
... slime molds

TIL Some of us are slime molds
Slime mold exist
Me: I fully embrace our slimy demon lord Rimuru Tempest
Me slowly believing she can just du som real classes on stream
Slime molds are just like me fr fr
Mother Nature doesn't pick favorites but I bet _slimemold_ gets close
I love it when Fauna just starts explaining interesting sciencey things like she's on the Joe Rogan podcast
That hat makes me think of Fauna as the ice cream girl from Stranger Things.
She should watch Zefrank's True Facts video on slime mold.
I’m interested in what other science knowledge she knows
Fun fact: slime mold is a single-celled organism
I remember reading about that a long time ago!!! Yeah its nuts. Not only did they replicate it well, but they also may have made one that's theoretically more efficient?
Fauna random nature facts ASMR please
Im learning!
