What can we learn from fungi? How can we work with them to adapt to the radical change of our times? How do they change the way we understand ourselves?

Join biologist and bestselling author of Entangled Life, Merlin Sheldrake, for an immersive, mind-expanding journey into the hidden life of fungi.

This is a rare event that fuses cutting-edge science, astonishing imagery, and transformative ideas, where science meets storytelling. You'll help chart the path, choosing which threads of the mycelial web to follow in real time.

Featuring a mesmerising original sound design from his brother - acclaimed musician and composer Cosmo Sheldrake - each event will evolve differently, shaped by audience questions and curiosity.  

 

Along the way, you'll encounter jaw-dropping timelapse footage from Fungi: The Web of Life and brand-new discoveries from the frontier of fungal research, revealing how these remarkable organisms sustain life on earth, and the many ways they can help us as we move forward on a changing planet. 

Part science, part story, part sonic experience - this is a one-of-a-kind journey into the living underground. Step into the mycelial web and see the world anew.

“Thinking about fungi makes the world look different. These remarkable organisms have shaped life on Earth for over a billion years and continue to do so. There are so many ways that fungi can help us as we move forwards on this changing planet."
