A fun experiment with a striking result. The environment provided for the slime molds doesn't seem to record mountains and lakes etc, so they can't be expected to choose the same system. When we find that engineers and nature have arrived at similar solutions, I think it's the engineers that we should marvel at. Even soap bubbles organize themselves to minimize surface area. http://www.soapbubble.dk/en/bubbles/geometry.php http://www.soapbubble.dk/en/bubbles/geometry.php and apparently Centuries ago, architects discovered that experimenting with soap bubbles could help them define the most economical form for the actual structure. http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G2-3407500197.html http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G2-3407500197.html
