The power of mushroom bioelectricity has been harnessed to create a viral modular synth track. Tarun Nayar, a biologist who is also formally trained in Indian classical music, recorded 'Mushroom Dance' with a red-belted conk; a type of stem decay fungus that was found growing on an old fir tree in the forest near his house.
Nayar used the bioelectricity, or biorhythms, of the mushroom "to inform the main synth lead line by using small changes in conductivity to trigger note changes in the synth".
