This is probably just a coincidence, but it looks cool:

The MS on the right is the Kitāb Arshimīdas fī al-binkāmāt (British Library, Add MS 23391). It's a 13th century Arabic treatise on hydraulic machinery. I thought some of the machines looked a bit like VMS plant roots.

EDIT: I rotated the Arabic picture upside-down so that it matches the orientation of the VMS root.

That's pretty cool. What's with the foliage and the birds though, did you rotate the picture from the original?

The Arabic picture is upside down, right?

Yes, sorry I forgot to mention, that I rotated the picture upside-down so that it matches the orientation of the VMS root. I will edit the OP.
