-Fast fashion is one of the biggest climate killers in terms of water pollution, garbage production and c02 output. The fashion industry needs to focus on regrowing ecological media that does not harm the environment. Physarum can be the suitable medium for this problem. It is fast and cheap to grow and will not pollute or harm nature. After ist use for fashion and clothes it will simply become a part of nature again.
-How to wear & wash it
-The Physarum on the clothes is completely dry. The Physarum will be revived when water is added - so be careful in the rain!
-If you want to wash the piece you have to add some water droplets on the Physarum and gently scrape it of with a spoon or something similiar. The Physarum should then be placed into a coffee filter to store it. It can be revived for the next shirt. The piece without the Physarum can be washed.
-The Philosophy
-Could you think of your project in terms of sustainability? Social, economic, ecological? Could you think of the impact on the “other” bubble? How does your project contribute to the aspects?
-Fast fashion is one of the biggest climate killers in terms of water pollution, garbage production and c02 output.

It is fast and cheap to grow and will not pollute or harm nature. After ist use for fashion and clothes it will simply become a part of nature again.
-Technical solution - how to produce Physarum clothes
-To create Physarum clothing pieces, the Physarum has to be grwon on plastic foil. The foil is then pressed on the fabric by placing weight on the Physarum/the foil. After a week the Physarum is dried and the clothing is ready to wear.
-Comments
-"Jesses Synopsis"
-The buildup:
-. The first part is an attempt to apply physarum polycephalum to a piece of fabric, to study it’s adaptive qualities and possible usage for fashion. The slime mold is capable of inhabiting a fabric just as any other environment. This allows for creative and sustainable applications of fashion clothing.
-. The other part is an environment for a performance. The performer and the slime mold are present as equals and will come together for a dining experience, eating a meal of oat flakes each in their preferred way.
-the concept:
-. For one, a living organism, applied to piece of clothing that is wearable is a fresh impulse for fashion design. It’s sustainable and degradable characteristics are a strong counterpoint to the synthetic, exploitative and wasteful handling of resources by the fashion industry. The whole is a proposition towards a more sustainable and mindful way for humans to live and dress. 2. The performance is an empathetic approach to the connections and common traits between humans and slime molds. The informal setting of a shared meal makes a point to show the community of all life, beyond the borders of species
