These things may seem unrelated, but are they really?! Lets
find out!
You may notice how it looks similar to lightning and I’d like
to talk about how that may not be just a coincidence.

Radical Mycology!
In this book Published in 2016, author and mycologist Peter
McCoy, talks about how electrical influences seem to be
important to the process of fungal growth. This is one of the
most important books on the subject of mycology and Peter
McCoy has been studying mushrooms for over 15 years.

Neurons!
Neurons look like mycelium and electricity and they also
have similar functions.

Magic mushrooms
and New Neural
Networks:
So-called “magic mushrooms” are being studied for their
potential to create new neural networks in the brain which
might be why they are helpful for people suffering from
PTSD.

Mycelium, neural
networks, and
electricity all look
similar and they all
have similar
functions. This leads
me to.....

mushroom yields!
"A four-year study carried out at Iwate University in northern
Japan on ten species of mushroom (so far) has shown that
for eight of the 10 mushroom species a bolt of lightning-
strength electricity could double the crop yield. The best
improvements were found in the popular nameko and
shiitake mushrooms. The experiments were carried out by
seeding logs with mushroom spores and then applying
high-voltage electricity pulses to the logs.

Mushroom
batteries?!
"Current state-of-the-art lithium-ion batteries must be
improved in both energy density and power output in order
to meet the future energy storage demand in electric
vehicles and grid energy-storage technologies," said Vilas
Pol, an associate professor in the School of Chemical
Engineering and the School of Materials Engineering. "So
there is a dire need to develop new anode materials with
superior performance."
"I was curious about the structure so I cut it open and found
that it has very interesting properties," he said. "It's very
rubbery and yet very tough at the same time. Most
interestingly, when I cut it open it has a very fibrous network
structure."

Mushroom mycelium
looks like neural
connections and
mushrooms are good
for your brain.
Mycelium, neurons,
both look the same
and both use
electrical signals to
share information.

How it works
"The power source is hooked up to the primary coil. The
primary coil's capacitor acts like a sponge and soaks up the
charge. The primary coil itself must be able to withstand the
massive charge and huge surges of current, so the coil is
usually made out of copper, a good conductor of electricity.
Eventually, the capacitor builds up so much charge that it
breaks down the air resistance in the spark gap. Then,
similar to squeezing out a soaked sponge, the current flows
out of the capacitor down the primary coil and creates a
magnetic field."

Is it a coincidence
that this tower is
mushroom shaped?!
I think not! Form and
function,
people! Form and
function!!

internet does
how electrical signals help fungi grow
how mushrooms are good for brain health
and how all these things are shaped in the same way and
work in the same way.
