Invited to join the Power of Plants, it was the first demo of Algae Printing in public and went very well. Kids were more computer suvvy than I thought and understood what is printed in front of them is not just an ordinary print-out but something very special. Yes, printed in algae.

School boys from Sidegate enjoyed printing a message in algae: it says “subscribe to stopmotion …..@ youtube”. Zoom in to catch the detail.
