After a while of obsessing over mushroom fabrics I decided to experiment with the material and decided to grow my own planters. This planter is made out of mycelium mushroom and hemp shreds. Mycelium is the vegetative part of mushroom, that is made of long white fibers. When mycelium is combined with wood fibers, and grown it can become as tough as brick. People have experimented with growing this for architecture insulation, packaging (puma uses this in some of their latest packaging), as well as furniture and home decor. I decided to go with planter bowl form because this is the easiest form I could make at home, and I love the idea of making planters that can be used for the spring.

Emmanuelle Moureaux, has created a 100,000 paper number cut-out installation designed to feel the passing of time. Moureaux made 120,000 paper numerical figures from zero to nine, as well as a colon symbol, which she formed a 3-d grid made up of 100 layers. Each row of numbers represents a time of day, from sunrise to sunfall. Different colors were also used to represent the time of day to illustrate the transition from day to night.

MX3D is 3D printing a fully functional stainless steel bridge to cross one of the largest canals in Amsterdam, the Oudezijds Achterburgwal.
