Fungi: Web of Life Trailer (IMAX movie, narrated by Björk, presented by Merlin Sheldrake)
Merlin Sheldrake presents an IMAX movie called Fungi: Web of Life.
The film is about the ways that fungi have shaped life on Earth for over a billion years, and how we might partner with them to adapt to the radical change of our times.

It features astonishing fungal time lapse photography from some of the best fungal photographers working today, including Steve Axford (@planet_fungi), Patrick Hickey, and Wim van Egmond. Much of this footage depicts aspects of fungal life that have never been captured in such high spatial and temporal resolution before.
The film will be trickling into IMAX cinemas across Europe and North America over the latter part of 2023 and into 2024, and may already be playing ...

Fascinated By Fungi Live: Dr Merlin Sheldrake author of "Entangled Life"
Merlin and I have a great chat about broad ranging topics in mycology and fermentation . We talk about his inspiration/motivation for writing his book “Entangled Life”. Then we get into mycelium as a way of life and the plurality of fungi vs determinate animal perspectives. We talk about communities vs single organisms and get into his work with Voyria and other Mycohetereotrophs. We move into talking about yeast/fermentation and brewing. We talk about “trophic transformation” by fungi and the potential for improving our world using fungi. We finish with talking about the “extended phenotype” of fungi and what that means in a broader sense. Such as awesome talk with @merlin.sheldrake, incredibly grateful he took the time to speak with me. Hope you guys enjoy our chat!

The life of the forest. Fungi
A forest is a place where thousands of different organisms meet, creating the most complex network of connections that can exist in nature.
