Gypsylab8 and Mycelium

Brazilian nomadic laboratory for interspecific relationship in the bio-technosphere

On a bright afternoon on a mediterranean coast landed a bottle with a message inside.

'’We need help with mycelium floating structure stop Brazil has no acces to western academic elite stop everything is pattented stop’’

(Gypsylab8)(https://elpaquetedigitanne.substack.com/p/tardigrade-invazion-inter-plannetary-invazion-and-non-human-studies-gambiologistsession-9616708d223f) is a ‘‘gambiarra’’ lab with a decolonial cosmogony Gambiology is the science of repairing what’s broken by using technics that emerges from precariousness lifestyle.

Gypsylab8 currently works on a floating turttle that collects datas to annalyse micropastic concentration from the ocean.

Now his main focus is to replace the plastic parts of the tortuga with mycelium structures coated with biocomposit mixture (coagulated fibres) we write about biomaterial since 2016. His project caught our attention, and we are joining efforts to make that prototype a reality.
