Engineering Biohybrid Mycelium Fibers through Hierarchical Structuring and Biomineralization

ABSTRACT Engineered living materials (ELMs) that utilize fungal cells have emerged as a class of functional materials, owing to their ability to self‐assemble, adapt, and regenerate. Filamentous fungi growth promotes the formation of a network of interwoven threads, or mycelia, t...

Fraught Narratives, Contrived Futures: Tokyo’s Techno-Utopian Erasure of the Unhoused

Mirai – future – is ubiquitously written into Tokyo’s cityscape. Yet the promises embedded in future-oriented government initiatives like Health Japan 21, Innovation 25, Society 5.0, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), reveal a growing disconnect between techno-utopian...

Central path art

The central path revolutionized the study of optimization in the 1980s and 1990s due to its favorable convergence properties, and as such, it has been investigated analytically, algorithmically, and computationally. Past pursuits have primarily focused on linking iterative approx...

The Rotational Trace

We combine ideas from geometry, calculus, complex numbers, and linear algebra to find a simple way to characterize the tendency of solutions of a 2×2 linear system of differential equations to rotate in an averaged sense. This characterization extends to solutions that do not tru...

3D Hydrodynamic Flow Lithography

ABSTRACT Continuous‐ and stop‐flow lithography are widely used to fabricate multi‐dimensional microstructures whose cross‐sectional morphology is dictated by the flow profile of multiple co‐flowing streams. Here, we introduce three‐dimensional hydrodynamic flow lithography (3D HF...
