In a uniform layer consisting of a mixture of granular material and liquid, it is known that desiccation cracks exhibit various anisotropic patterns that depend on the nature of the shaking that the layer experienced before drying. The existence of this effect implies that information regarding the direction of shaking is retained as a kind of memory in the arrangements of granular particles. In this work we make measurements in paste composed of Lycopodium powder using microfocus x-ray computerized tomography () in order to investigate the three-dimensional arrangements of particles. We find shaking-induced anisotropic arrangements of neighboring particles and density fluctuations forming interstices mainly in the lower part of the layer. We compare the observed properties of these arrangements with numerical results obtained in the study of a model of non-Brownian particles under shear deformation. In the experimental system, we also observe crack tips in theimages and confirm that these cracks grow along interstices in the direction perpendicular to the initial shaking.
