Mycelium Chips?

Yes, the kind you eat. 10g fiber. 15g protein

0 transistors
runs on teeth
Wont turn you into a cyborg (probably).

$25 / 4-pack ; ships aug 15. Order 👇

Mycochips?

Yea. We grow that too.

Mycelium Chips?

No, not the kind you eat. the kind funded by DARPA that do inference based on the grown structure of mycelium.

its a cyborg onramp

@ebenbayer Do humans dreams of mycelium sheep?

Lets go!

MyBacon is now sizzling in 1,200 stores—with thousands more coming soon, maybe even your favorite fast-food spot. Fresh funding just landed @ecovative to boost production, distribution, and innovation. It’s a tough market, but superior taste and quality always win.

@mkoeris @DARPA NOTED.

we are hard at work!

We've already shown mycelium can grow food and materials at scale. Now we're exploring how these fungal networks process information. Nature's technology - creating abundance in food, materials, and potentially, computation itself.

[Ecovative @ecovative]

In Dec @DARPA awarded us a grant to explore bioelectronic computing using mycelial networks. We're combining conductive polymers with living fungal tissue to create what could become biological electronics - a literal living circuit.

[Ecovative @ecovative]

With @DARPA's support, we're investigating how to harness mycelial networks for computation. Early results suggest these living systems could process information in ways silicon never could - using nature's own information processing architecture.

MyBacon is now availible nation wide. Grown with Organic Mycelium in the Hudson valley and just 4 simple ingredients. Its yum! Check out @myforestfoods for a store finder.

[Eben Bayer @ebenbayer]

15 years ago we started growing packaging with mycelium @ecovative and 4 years ago we launched a new platform- AirMycelium.

Today our farms produce 15,000 lbs/week of food and fashion materials.

Here's a few things I've learned about scaling biology:

[Grow by Ginkgo @growbyginkgo]

It's Monday. Time to put the FUN in fungi🍄

@thisischristina speaks with @ebenbayer about scaling his mycelium company.

How does he, after over a decade of running @ecovative, think about the tension between scale & growth, capitalism & sustainability?

😍 love an early morning AirMycelium harvest

This crop was grown at Swersey Silo's and will get sliced, flavored, and packed, right down the street by our friends @myforestfoods in the Hudson Valley.

We are planting crops in 3 farms in 2 countries now!

[Eben Bayer @ebenbayer]

3,2,1 -- Lift off!

10 shelves of a fresh MyBacon crop ready for harvest.

Big congrats to the @ecovative team for bringing this dream to life. The first new global crop in thousands of years! Now being farmed in 3 countries.

Working on Earth, so we can go to the stars.
