Moderator: Eliot Morrison

In her talk,  'Mycohuman Relationships. Fungi as Interspecies Connectors, Companion Species and Human Symbionts' Saša Spačal proposes that Mycohuman relationships are entangled with mycorrhizal extensions that transgress both fungi and humans as species and form an extensive rhizomatic network, so vast that transcends several planes of existence: material, immaterial, organic, technological, social and planetary.
