I'd just like to draw everyone's attention to a slime mold that secretes a blood-like substance.

Go slime molds (or Gaarg). I showed my friend Gaarg's tumblr, and he basically just kept saying "the fuck is this?" while doing awkward laughs.

For the slime molds:

GODDAMN EVERYONE MUST READ THAT ARTICLE AND LISTEN TO THE SLIME MOLD MUSIC, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT SLIME MOLDS WIN.

 

Seriously though. They are Most IDM

[dr lopez]

yeah slime molds are pretty fucking amazing

[wahrk]

I'm gonna be pissed if gaarg beats factories at night.

 

But of course we all know that slime mold and social awkwardness will be the final two.

[Soloman Tump]

Who the funk is voting for terraforming planets???

 

SLIME MOLDS MUST WIN

[lumpenprol]

maybe you're having trouble seeing that SLIME MOLDS ARE CURRENTLY LOSING [in ref to wahrk]

[gmanyo]

Slime molds just remind me of Nethack.

[Guest Adam]

Sorry, teraforming and gaarg will be in the final.

[jeremymacgregor87]

being socially awkward is the true IDM way, that thread is a testament to it

[goDel]

[Root5]

SLIME MOLDS FOR A SECOND COME BACK!

[zazen]

Searching for incomplete skyscrapers, this is some next level shizness:-

Proper sci-fi if it ever gets built!

 

Holy shit; that Kingdom Tower is crazy!

 

Thing is, its hard to get enthusiastic about the 1000m tower when they've only just finished the 828m tower, because it means that as soon as they finish the 1000m one they'll start on a 1300m one and the 1000m will be old news.

[dr lopez]

come on FACTORIES AT NIGHT

[Guest theSun]

are incomplete skyscrapers just referring to the architectural drawings of buildings? like they haven't even dug the foundation yet? i kept assuming it was skyscrapers that were abandoned but half built. these would be much rarer and more idm.

thats what i thought too... Otherwise, not so much.

[dr lopez]

incomplete skyscraper par excellence

 

 

anyone from chicago will lol

 

 

 

 

[gaarg]

For all my voters I posted something on tumblr.

 

For all you who voted factories at night, I know where your grandmas live!

[jules]

gaarg comp will be even cooler with individual track artwork. i want to see some huge set that puts the quadrange stuff to shame.

 

gaarg all the way in 2012.
