Workshop No.1 – Introduction To Applied Mycology

 

Fascinating introduction to applied mycology, this 3 hours workshop covers mycelium reproduction techniques and its multiple applications (urban agriculture, domestical and agricultural residual matters upcycling, circular economy, organic 3d printing, ground decontamination, water filtration, traditional and alternative medecines – DIY – biohacking)

  • – Workshops are given in the HomeGrown-Mushroom / Champignons-Maison space
      • Theoretical part
    • Fungal reign reproduction cycles of mushrooms
    • History part of growing mushrooms and ethnomycology
    • Modern vs. low-tech modemade reproduction techniques
    • Environmental interventions and objects made of mycelium 
      • Practical part
    • Mycelium reproduction made with domestic residuals (coffee grounds, wood chips, cardboard, etc…) 

    Workshop No. 2 – Setting Up Home Lab (Mycology + BioHacking = MycoHacking)

    Transforming your own kitchen into a myco-laboratory for a single night is now easier than you ever thought!

    Level : Intermediate (we recommend to participants of having previously attented to our ‘Introduction to applied mycology’ or already knowing the basics of mycology)
