aka, “This is What Happens When a Squid Listens to Cypress Hill.”
I predict that when we attach your body to these stimuli, your smile muscles will fire.
The video is a view through an 8x microscope zoomed in on the dorsal side of the caudal fin of the squid. We used a suction electrode to stimulate the fin nerve. Chromatophores are pigmeted cells that come in 3 colors: Brown, Red, and Yellow. Each chromatophore is lined with up to 16 muscles that contract to reveal their color.
Here’s more info on the project. Now excuse me while I try to explain the concept of membranes (and Cypress Hill) to the beguiled Micronaxx.
