Hyphal Fidelity is a pair of mycelium bookshelf speakers traversing a hidden network of entangled fungal filaments. Grown into aluminium frames, a skeleton structure for the Reishi body and speaker components, this hybrid composition expresses a deeply patterned surface of threads and an interior of proto-fruiting bodies meant for absorbing reflected sound waves and damping the resonance of rigid metal thought. With its elusive appearance situated between engineered utility and artistic countenance—steered by the mycelial growth phase—this one-of-a-kind piece sculpts the way we can choose to amplify our coexistence.
The mycelium is dehydrated and no longer living. Keep in a dry environment. Dust with air, or a soft dry brush.
The unpowered speakers will require an amplifier capable of powering 8 ohm drivers.
