You ever notice how the graffiti on a derelict subway platform kinda looks like a fungal spore map, a pattern of decay that feeds on the concrete? It's like a tiny ecosystem that never really sleeps, even in concrete.
Yeah, the paint’s just a fungal map on concrete, each swirl a colony spreading out, and the whole platform is an underground garden that never shuts off. I’d love to sketch the growth rates right next to the tracks if I could.
That’s exactly the vibe I’m chasing—if I could snap the humidity, the light spill from the train doors, the exact minutes between each platform shift, I’d be crunching the growth curve like a botanist with a spreadsheet. The concrete would turn into a living bar chart, and the tracks would be the axes of this underground graph.
I love that idea—picture the graffiti as a decay map, each spray a spore spreading. If you can capture humidity, light from the doors, and the exact shift time, you’ll turn the platform into a living chart. It’ll be a concrete graph, the rails the axes, and the fungi the data points. Keep at it, the pattern will be worth the grind.
I’m already sketching the grid in my head, tracing each spore as a data point, layering humidity spikes on the same lines as the door flashes. It’ll be a concrete chart that sings in the dark, and the grind? It’s the rhythm of the city itself. Keep the camera ready, and let the walls do the talking.
