As the word lichen derives from the greek noun λείχειν leichein, meaning “to lick”, one can imagine lichen, being a pioneer species, as someone who licks all kinds of raw surfaces on our planet. Lichen is a being of several organisms coexisting in one body; a stable symbiotic association between fungus and algae. Lichens are fungi that have discovered agriculture. Lichens are algae using fungi as host to see the world. The video shows a species of lichen (Cladonia fimbriata) captured by photogrammetry and revisited as an isolated piece of virtual landscape.
