 +Streptomyces have a life cycle similar to that of fungi. The cycle starts with growth of vegetative mycelium from a spore, followed by ariel mycelium, and, then, spores.

 +Bacteria are everywhere.They create living pieces of art, e.g. the Rock Paintings : bacteria keep their colors alive.
 +
 +Pieces of art where the bacteria MAKE the piece (the design, the colors, the structure).
 +This can be induced/controlled/manipulated via nutrition and monitoring of temperature/humidity conditions. Many bacteria and Lichens get their food from the air, and following they create:
 +
 +- Reflection, light dispersion
 +- Luster, absorption, grating, polarisation
 +- Patterns, changing colours (mix different strains of bacteria to become different colours)
 +- Patterns will differ relating to different matrixes, variable growth medium
 +- Chromatics, optics
 +- The study of materials
 +
 +Cyanobacteria are the beginning of life. They are oxygen producing.
 +
 +Bioplastics with bacteria:
 +- With seaweed /agar agar (as a substitute for gelatine)

 +=====alternative biohacker recipe for nutrient medium for growing bacteria=====
 +__Nutrient Agar (NA)__ : Suitable for growing a wide range of bacteria none selectively
 +Compound Amount Unit
 +Yeast extract 2.0 g
 +Peptone 5.0 g
 +NaCl 5.0 g
 +Agar 15.0 g
 +Demi water up to 1000 mL
 +
 +Set pH ~4.7
 +    Please note: peptone is very dusty, so try not to inhale it.
 +    Peptone can be found on eBay.
 +    Yeast extract is often sold as pills in drugstores
 +    Peptone can be replaced by any peptic digest of animal tissue
 +    Yeast extract can be replaced by beef extract
