In today’s episode, host Hannah Balber discusses the agency and design capabilities of fungi with our guest Feifei Zhou. Feifei is an architect and artist who co-curated Fungi. Anarchist Designers together with anthropologist Anna Tsing. The exhibition asks what happens when we stop thinking of fungi as materials or resources and instead recognize them as designers and try to learn from them about coexistence and survival, especially in time of ecological crisis. 

This episode of Art Is Not a Thing is produced by Ars Electronica and developed in collaboration with Radio Ö1.
