As a part of the Virtual BoochFest that took place last month, lab member Théo Chauvirey created a documentary on the place of kombucha SCOBY in art, science, culture, and design.

Beauty and the Booch dives deep into the making of the Théo and WhiteFeather’s Bucci dress, highlights the connection between beauty and birth in Yvonne Pelling’s Mother, and much more! Tune in for discussions on materiality, embodiment, and biomedical science.

The documentary features interviews with Andrei Venter, Haleh Vedaninejad, Jacqui Beaumont, Yvonne Pelling, and WhiteFeather Hunter.
