insane in the membrane
one of the reasons even cleveland is one my favourite blogs is the great mix of information she shares. like this video of a cypress hill stimulated squid:
During experiments on the axons of the Woods Hole squid (loligo pealei), we tested our cockroach leg stimulus protocol on the squid's chromatophores. The results were both interesting and beautiful. The video is a view through an 8x microscope zoomed in on the dorsal side of the caudal fin of the squid. We used a suction electrode to stimulate the fin nerve. Chromatophores are pigmeted cells that come in 3 colors: Brown, Red, and Yellow. Each chromatophore is lined with up to 16 muscles that contract to reveal their color.
more on her post here.
the same thing is happening here, except with said cockroach leg and the beastie boys. of course.
