The fabulation is illustrated through physical prototypes of living fungi chair, sporing garments and their nurseries. Through new interactions with living bio-interfaces in furnitures and garments, the work propose behavioral and attitudinal change in Substratocene.
This Substrate Fantasia film is collage of three vignettes in Substratocene:
I. Substratization Lab
II.Human-Fungi Co-living Experience
III. Re-defined Social Exchange
