GIY Materials: Growing Fungi for BioFabrication
Maker Faire Bay Area 2023
October 13th-22nd
This 'GIY Materials: Growing Fungi for BioFabrication presentation will introduce Grow-It-Yourself methods and projects that use the magic of mycelium, mushrooms, and other biological organisms to produce renewable materials that can be heat resistant, water resistant, and biodegradable…. and maybe even help clean the environment! We'll show example projects involving fashion, electronics, and architecture along with some tips and resources on how you, too, can grow your own materials for future projects.
