@markmetz That's really cool! I hope it takes off.
@chrisp
Absolutely! I hope that it’s not a proprietary process and that it’s open source. -

#solarpunk@markmetz Assuming the murshrooms won't potentially grow onto anything they might flake off onto, this is already very promising

@thibaultmol @Morpurgo
I would hope that this is Open source and not proprietary, or that it could be engineered in a way that it could be open source. -

@Helenisenough
Thanks! I hope this is replicated in open source around the world -
@c_salem@mastodon.social Such projects are already funded by the EU, e.g. the Belgian company Permafungi.
And the packages are in the shops. In France e.g. https://www.embelium.fr/ - and outside the EU you have Mushroom Packaging UK.@NatureMC @c_salem@mastodon.social
Good to know! It would be great to see some regulations mandating this. -

#solarpunk@markmetz I don't know if it was made by these guys, but I received a gift of a bottle of hot sauce made by the brothers Sheldrake which was packaged in this type of material. It really does work very well.

#solarpunk@markmetz yes!! I love stuff like this. I try to cut down on my waste but ya know I like to buy things and I hate when they use excess plastic!! An SD card can ship to me loose in an envelope I do not care. I try buying used but that's not always possible.

#solarpunk@markmetz Excellent idea.

#solarpunk@markmetz I want to insulate my house with this. Maybe in a few years, we can just inoculate walls and feed the insulation.
A friend told me there's already a paint based on this principle that just grows back when damaged 🤩

@disorderlyf the production process involves heating up the material at the end to denature it.
-
Splendid,
@markmetz we need more of this. Have you any experiences with growing this in situ, for example as insulation for houses? (Is it even suitable as insulation?)@inj4n
That I do not know since I am not the one growing it, but I certainly hope so! It seems like it has a lot of potential! -
@markmetz Sharing for the corduroy pants and wool sweaters everyone seems to be wearing. I didn't even know you could still BUY corduroy.
@Wyatt_H_Knott
Apparently, so, my daughter recently sent me up with a nice pair of corduroy pants that I was dreaming of. -
@markmetz Yeah let's see more innovation like this. This actually replaces something WORTH replacing unlike AI that only exists to replace people or make them lazy in the pursuit of "efficiency"
@VANTABlack2000
Excellent point!
I often wonder in the same sort of thing as I see the hundreds of billions of dollars being built for data centers that fry the planet for no good reason.Shouldn’t we be solving real problems?
-
@markmetz between this and all the hours I spent growing and picking mushrooms in Stardew Valley, I suddenly have the urge to quit my job and become a professional mushroom (packaging) grower!
@UpLateGeek
Not a bad idea! And if you could create an open source process, so much the better! -
@markmetz IIRC this is patented and others cannot even sufficiently make mushroomy alternatives without calling in for a license
@ppxl
I hope someone figures out an open source analog to this.
