A New Chapter

Ecology and Sociology both share a great lesson. Seemingly separate organisms are often connected in ways we do not recognise and have a shared dependence.

An old adage in the English language is ‘you cannot see the forest for the trees’, meaning we can at times be so focused on the finer details that we miss the entirety of the situation.

As the digital experience grows and becomes more intertwined with everyday life, advancements in technology continue enabling new forms of network creation.

Inspired by the natural networks which sustain, Mycelium Network is a project focused on combining Lived and Digital experience to create structures which will further the goals of a circular economy.

Interoperability, ease of use and use case adoption are three areas of ‘blockchain’ that have yet to actualise potential. Many advances have occurred but disruption to legacy systems has yet to take place at the scale these advances promise.

Our goal is to address inefficiencies in traditional and emerging systems with intuitive solutions.

In healthy forests, each tree is connected to others via a network, enabling trees to share carbon, water, sugar and nutrients. These networks play many different roles depending on the circumstance.

This form of network creation is one as societies we have aspired to replicate and it is our mission to be a part of that process.

Starting within the Lition community Mycelium Network will now grow and adapt to further the health of our intertwining eco-systems.

A new project, under new direction born of the ideals of sustainablity that brought many minds to the same place in Lition.
