Mold art…enjoy :)

Not sure if this quite fits this community, but thought it may be interesting

    Oh, there’s so much potential with this method. Just cultivate different types of microbes (preferably distinctly colors), slice the agars in to small squares, make a mosaic out of them and cultivate a few more days to hide the gaps. Better do the slicing in a proper laminar flow hood though. I can smell the spores all the way from here.

      I was wondering if she used thin plastic as separators to keep the different molds apart, but I like your interpretation better

    That is very creative! Did you make it?

    I don’t find that gross, I think it’s beautiful. But maybe I am a bit too used to mold from my many mycology hobby failures and lazy kitchen habits 😅
