BIOVERSE HAT — Protisa!

Regular price
Color:
Slime molds are fascinating, amoeba-like organisms belonging to the kingdom Protista. Despite their name, they are distinct from fungi and exhibit behaviors that blur the line between simplicity and intelligence.

Slime molds can solve complex problems, such as finding the shortest path through a maze or optimizing food networks, all without a brain. Instead, they rely on decentralized decision-making, guided by chemical gradients and environmental cues.

As ancient life forms, slime molds provide unique insights into the evolution of multicellularity and collective behavior, offering a glimpse into life’s earliest innovations.
Glow in Dark Thread
The pale green thread, featured on this hat, is the glow in the dark. To see it, charge the hat in the sun (or with the iPhone torch for 30 seconds) and then view in the dark.

About Bioverse Hats

Each hat is a unique, wearable artwork, crafted individually on a home embroidery machine in NYC by Tin Nguyen. The process allows for the use of many colors, making every hat unique.

The embroidery explores the complex lives of plants and other life forms, drawing inspiration from themes of plant intelligence, symbiosis, hybridity, and evolution.
