FAQ
What is Mushka?
Mushka is an augmented reality application that features a fruit fly whose behavior is driven by a simplified simulation of a real fly's nervous system. It allows users to place the fly on a table and observe its reactions to various stimuli.
How does Mushka simulate a fly's brain?
Mushka runs a simplified simulation of a fruit fly's central nervous system, incorporating 164,606 neurons and millions of connections that spike in real time. This simulation is based on scientific mapping of a fruit fly's neural wiring.
Can I interact with Mushka?
Yes, you can interact with Mushka by tapping to drop sugar, which she will investigate, or by swiping your hand at her to trigger an escape response. On iPhones with LiDAR, your real hand acts as the stimulus.
What is the educational value of Mushka?
Mushka provides an educational experience by allowing users to visualize and understand the basic principles of a fruit fly's nervous system and how it controls behavior like feeding and escape.
Is Mushka a real fly or an uploaded mind?
Mushka is a simplified simulation of a wiring diagram and is not a living fly or an uploaded mind. The app clearly labels which aspects are simulated brain decisions and which are animation.
What devices does Mushka support?
Mushka is currently supported on iPhones. The app was released on September 24, 2026, with version 1.0.
Does Mushka have ads?
No, Mushka does not contain advertisements. The application is free to download and use without any ad interruptions.
How often is Mushka updated?
Mushka was last updated on September 24, 2026, with version 1.0. Future updates will depend on the developer's release schedule.
