Suzanne Lee: Grow your own clothes

The video explores the innovative use of kombucha fermentation to create cellulose-based materials. The process involves brewing tea, adding sugar, and introducing microbes to produce cellulose mats. These mats can be harvested, dried, and used as lightweight, flexible materials. The speaker discusses the potential for these materials in sustainable design, highlighting their efficiency and biodegradability. Challenges such as water resistance are noted, and future possibilities in synthetic biology are considered. The video concludes with a Q&A session about the ongoing project.

Explain the process of changing the color of the material without using dye.

What are the potential applications of bacterial cellulose mentioned in the text?

What future possibilities does the speaker envision for growing materials?
