I've wanted to see beyond the Western, mechanical view of the world and see what else might appear when the lens was changed. "How might we organize differently if we understood how Life organizes?" "problems that are impossible to solve with one paradigm may be easily solved with a different one."

"Almost since life began on earth, mycelia have performed important ecological roles: nourishing ecosystems, repairing them, and sometimes even helping create them. The fungi's exquisitely fine filaments absorb nutrients from the soil and then trade them with the roots of plants for some of the energy that the plants produce through photosynthesis. No plant community could exist without mycelia."
