The fungus reproduces the image creating an “eidetic” or “photographic” memory.

The circadian clock of the fungus Neurospora crassa as a live canvas.

The light-sensing system underlying the Live Canvas response is integrated in the Neurospora circadian regulatory system. Since different levels of projected light alter clock phase in an intensity-dependent manner, bioluminescence is expressed differentially across the canvas.
