THERE’S ANOTHER FORM OF INTELLIGENCE, one that’s much closer. We didn’t even know it existed until recently. Complex beyond our wildest imagining, it was built by a community whose population is inconceivably vast. Here rays of light filter down through the canopy of birch, maple, tung, fir, pine, oak, and poplar, and the rich carpet of moss and twigs crunches beneath our footsteps. Our distant ancestors, tiny shrewlike animals, came of age in places not too different from this one. Forests. Maybe they knew what we’ve only recently discovered. The secret life of this place is filled with drama, abuzz with conversation. Much of it is spoken in an electrochemical language, and it takes place on a scale too small, and in motion too slow, for creatures like us to even notice.
