“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

(That's actually the title of a great essay by Iain Hamilton Grant.) HT Bill Benzon. Nice long piece in the New York Times today about slime molds, with wonderful photos. Including electronic music using slime molds.
