  An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture 
   
  Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger. 
   
  In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’sPro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway. 
   
  Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture ― and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness ― to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.

  Mycology - Fungi and Their World

  Fungi occupy a unique and essential place in the natural world, forming a biological kingdom distinct from plants, animals, and bacteria. Unlike plants, fungi do not rely on photosynthesis to produce energy, and unlike animals, they do not consume food through ingestion. Instead, they absorb nutrients externally by secreting powerful enzymes that break down organic material. This ability allows fungi to play a crucial role in ecosystems, particularly as decomposers that recycle nutrients back into the environment. 
  The evolutionary origins of fungi date back over a billion years, with evidence suggesting they share a distant common ancestor with animals. As they evolved, fungi developed an incredible range of adaptations, enabling them to survive in nearly every habitat on Earth. From the depths of the ocean to arid deserts, fungi have found ways to thrive in extreme conditions. Some species form vast underground networks, facilitating communication between plants, while others exist as microscopic spores floating invisibly through the air. 
  Classifying fungi has been a longstanding challenge due to their vast diversity and complex life cycles. Scientists traditionally grouped fungi based on physical traits and reproductive strategies, but advances in molecular biology have refined their classification. The major phyla of the fungal kingdom include Basidiomycota, which encompasses familiar mushrooms, Ascomycota, which includes yeasts and molds, Zygomycota, known for fast-growing molds, and Glomeromycota, which form essential symbiotic relationships with plant roots. These diverse groups showcase the wide-ranging forms and functions of fungi in nature.

  Agrostology, the scientific study of grasses, is a crucial field of botany that explores the diversity, structure, and ecological significance of grasses. Grasses belong to the Poaceae family, one of the largest and most economically important plant families in the world. These plants play a foundational role in ecosystems, agriculture, and human civilization. From the vast prairies and savannas to the rice and wheat fields that sustain billions of people, grasses shape the landscapes of both natural and human-altered environments. 
  The study of grasses has a long history, dating back to early agricultural societies that first domesticated cereal crops. The ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China relied on grasses such as wheat, barley, and rice to establish permanent settlements. Over time, the understanding of grass physiology, reproduction, and ecological functions deepened, leading to advancements in agronomy, ecology, and land management. By the 19th and 20th centuries, agrostology emerged as a specialized discipline within botany, focusing on grass classification, physiology, and ecosystem dynamics. 
  Grasses are uniquely adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions. They thrive in temperate, tropical, and even arid climates, displaying remarkable resilience through specialized growth mechanisms. Their ability to reproduce through both seeds and vegetative propagation allows them to colonize and dominate various habitats. Many grass species employ C4 photosynthesis, an efficient metabolic pathway that enables them to survive in hot, dry environments. This adaptability makes grasses a dominant plant group in many ecosystems, providing habitat and food for numerous animal species.
