C-MOULD, is the world’s largest collection of microorganisms for use in the arts and design, with over 50 different kinds of microorganism. In 2014 C-MOULD’s research scientists (that’s just me at the moment!) will be developing a sustainable and ethical wool made from algae. We have just acquired the filamentous algae Spirogyra varians, and hopefully will soon be weaving it’s microfilaments into a algal wool jumper.
