The speculative garden project considers the future of symbiosis with the technological object, the more-than-human and the environment in terms of power and control in the context of global capitalism and posthumanism.

For this purpose licen was used, to reflect the idea of symbiosis on the environment with algorithms and artificial intelligence by using sensors, computers, photos and sounds from the environment.

The feedback and instances from the physical to the digital space, it creates an intangible figure of nature and are represented in this garden as an interface.

Victimless Leather

Motivation

The aim was to create a "victimless utopia" which is against to material waste of global production and animal cruelty.

Plan

Victimless Leather explores the future consequences and potentials of using tissue engineering to develop consumer products in leather production.

Execution

This leather is cultured inside a custom-made perfusion chamber, inspired by the organ perfusion pump

Hyper Articulated Mycomorph

The Industrial Revolution has led to the fast production of non-renewable composite materials and as a result of this, interest in biomaterials for industrial applications is growing fast and mycelium is one the most studied ones.

In this research, mycelium PLA is produced for 3D printing and used to generate new and aesthetic possibilities for myco-composite objects, by observing and simulating the behaviour of mycelium in various substrates.

To explore this aspect of biodegradable and digital fabrication methods, a table prototype was created.

 Motivation
-At first, clothing began as a means of protection from the external environment. Then, transformed into materials to show the attitude. Today, clothes express ideas about identity and can be seen as manifestations of global systems of production.
+The aim was to create a "victimless utopia" which is against to material waste of global production and animal cruelty.

 Execution
-This leather is cultured inside a custom-made perfusion chamber, inspired by the organ perfusion pump originally designed by Alexis Carrel and Charles Lindbergh. The chamber has an automated system which drips into the polymers and feeds the cells with a nutrient media.

-The high consuming, disposable culture brought on by the Industrial Revolution has led to the fast production of non-renewable composite materials such as plastics, which are now a significant part of landfills and oceans. As a result, interest in biomaterials for industrial applications is growing fast and mycelium is one the most studied one.
