Urges in the undergrowth. Erupting fungal fantasies. Bursting botanicals... the dust and desires of a tiny alternative universe.
Imagining the sensations of attraction and pleasure in insects, and the seduction methods of the plants and fungi that beckon.
(Best with headphones or speakers with bass)
