14.01.2022 Thanks to Jane King (from John Curtin Gallery) for letting my know our Creative Grid project, Mycelium, has a current sci-fi sibling in the Star Trek: Discovery series. https://www.forbes.com///star-trek-discovery-spore-drive/ I like this quote from the above-mentioned article:... "Mycelium of belowground fungi connect plants and trees together, and have even been show to communicate with each other. Mycelium can transport nutrients between different plants or trees, and real-life Paul Stamets has the called the real-life mycelial network "Earth's natural internet". So that's what we're going to do in our 'regional arts internet' - communicate with each other, share ideas and resources as we nurture a community of support and flourishing. If you haven't completed the initial scoping survey to gauge interest in Mycelium, here's the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/5TRH3SP Please share this along to your arts practitioner contacts in the regions.
