A forensic ecosystem for biological art production—converting regional waste into high-fidelity pigments, structural media, and substrates via fungal fermentation.

A Division of P1-Lab — Deterministic Physics. Biological Integrity. Zero-Royalty Innovation.
Overview
The lithic-studio is a forensic ecosystem for biological art production. It provides a complete vertical stack for converting regional botanical waste into high-fidelity art media and substrates via fungal fermentation.
By utilizing Aspergillus oryzae as a molecular scalpel, this system liberates pigments, structural fibers, and cellulose-binding agents that are typically inaccessible through conventional chemical extraction pathways.
The Technical Stack (Nodes)
This repository is organized into three core industrial nodes. Each node is a standalone protocol designed for material synchronization.
/nodes/pigment — Forensic extraction of botanical light. Converts spices and flora into water-dilutable pigment pastes.
/nodes/fresco — Structural compounding of textured media. Utilizes palm and citrus waste to create high-relief impasto with physical “drag.”
/nodes/substrate — Biological fabrication of palm-weave paper. A Koji-fermented softening loop producing flexible handmade art paper.
System Architecture
The studio operates on a Mono-Material Logic. Because pigment, fresco texture, and paper substrate share a common biological catalyst and botanical origin, the resulting artwork achieves unified material integrity.
- Catalyst: Aspergillus oryzae
- Feedstock: Fallen palm fronds, citrus pomace, regional spices
- Binding Matrix: Chitosan / Agar Agar / Neri (nori-derived)
