"As I delve into the realm of lexicons entwined with the fusion of nature-inspired words and technological jargon, I find myself pondering the reasons behind our inclination to employ bioinspired vocabulary in describing mineral and non-organic aspects of technology. It brings forth an intriguing question: What motivated us to portray technological entities as living organisms through metaphors?

In my exploration of this phenomenon, I have curated an array of terminologies that possess dual meanings, demonstrating the metaphorical interplay between the organic world and the evolution of computation. This selection encompasses species, projects, technologies, and elements of digital culture, shedding light on how nature has influenced and shaped the trajectory of computational advancements. Among these connections and inspirations, we encounter an unconventional instance where the infamous video game DOOM intertwines with the concept of fungal computation. This unconventional association offers a lens through which we can understand the mutual influence of the organic and digital domains."
