Fungal Futures 03: “What are the materials of the future?”

Research output: Non-textual form › Exhibition

Abstract

An international group of artists, designers and scientists have started to work with mycelium, a tight network of fungal hyphae that grows from plant and vegetable waste, among other things. The material developed from this is an interesting alternative to traditional materials such as plastic.
