MYCELIUMAGICA<br />
The name ‘Myceliumagica’ derived from the<br />
scientific word Mycelium , is the vegetative<br />
part of a fungus act as networking system to<br />
grow mushrooms, and Magica is Latin for<br />
Magic. This collection mainly inspired by<br />
psychedelic psilocybin mushroom. Most significantly,<br />
the effect that psychedelic<br />
psilocybin have on the human brain, inducing<br />
states of interconnectivity, creative openness,<br />
and a capacity to overcome mental<br />
health problems such as anxiety and depres -<br />
sion.Furthermore, the role that mushrooms<br />
play in maintaining large ecosystems on our<br />
planet, acting as a communication network<br />
between different species of plant life is<br />
really fascinating and inspiring. Also, the<br />
silhouette and the texture of different<br />
types of mushrooms can be seen subtly<br />
throughout the collection. The designs also<br />
references aspects of the 1960’s Psychedelia<br />
subculture, including the rich and colourful<br />
clothing of Jimi Hendrix. The prints and<br />
embellishment are partly inspired by Psyche -<br />
delia posters from the 60s, Flower power<br />
counter culture, and the visual effects of<br />
psychedelics.
Think of magic<br />
mushrooms it’s<br />
likely that science<br />
is not the first<br />
thing that springs<br />
to mind. Psychedelic<br />
drugs are more<br />
likely to be associated<br />
with hippies<br />
and the counterculture<br />
of the 1960s<br />
than people in<br />
white lab coats and<br />
clinical trials.<br />
But that might soon<br />
change. Increasingly,<br />
scientists are<br />
looking at whether<br />
mind-altering drugs<br />
might also have the<br />
potential to be<br />
mind-healing.<br />
research<br />
psilocybin<br />
Psilocybin is a chemical<br />
found in magic mushrooms<br />
that causes the user to<br />
experience a sensory overload<br />
of saturated colors<br />
and patterns.
A number of small<br />
studies have found<br />
psychedelics to show<br />
promise in treating<br />
mental health<br />
disorders like depression,<br />
addiction<br />
and post-traumatic<br />
stress disorder,<br />
often where other<br />
treatments have<br />
failed.(bbc.uk)
It is through our senses we form a relationship<br />
with the world. Networking what<br />
we know with what we don’t. In an endless<br />
complex labyrinthian manor we form<br />
understandings. A simple idea roots, and<br />
fractals into a series of interdependent<br />
abstractions to form a shape. This can be<br />
reflected in the shape, texture and growth<br />
pattern of psilocybin mushrooms, and their<br />
assistance in mental and emotional processing.<br />

# PSYCHEDELIA<br />
Psychedelia is the<br />
subculture, originating<br />
in the 1960s,<br />
of people who use<br />
mind altering drugs<br />
such as LSD and psilocybin<br />
(found in<br />
some mushrooms). The<br />
term is also used<br />
to describe a style<br />
of psychedelic artwork<br />
and psychedelic<br />
music. 1960’s icon<br />
Jimi Hendrix, rich<br />
and colourful fashion<br />
style enriched<br />
culture with a new<br />
perspective of free<br />
expression.

print development<br />
A manipulation of the ordinary, revealing<br />
hidden layers to the otherwise mundane.<br />
Inspired by the influence on culture by<br />
music pioneer Jimi Hendrix. Referring abstractly<br />
to his vibrant fashion and revolutionary<br />
sound.

distortion<br />
The eye being the<br />
viewer of reality<br />
and emotions the<br />
mediator of perception,<br />
Subject<br />
to systematic belief,<br />
a distorted<br />
lens becomes<br />
the default from<br />
which truth is<br />
grappled with.<br />
print design
Here a representation<br />
of perception<br />
as obtained<br />
through psychedelic<br />
intervention<br />
inspired by<br />
and in style of<br />
flower power counter<br />
subculture.
print design
Seen here is the<br />
development of<br />
recurring visual<br />
and contextual<br />
themes combined<br />
to form a display<br />
of mind in open<br />
and connected relationship<br />
with<br />
itself and the<br />
outside world.
A representation<br />
of altered states<br />
of consciousness.<br />
As vision sharpens,<br />
colours brighten,<br />
and perception deepens.<br />
A revelation of<br />
the richness of life<br />
as seen through the<br />
eye of the spirit.<br />

binding<br />
technique<br />
Use of a binding technique<br />
to achieve a clean<br />
finish to the fabric<br />
pattern. Sewn together<br />
to create voluminous<br />
waves replicating<br />
the texture and shape<br />
of mushrooms. Seen applied<br />
to various parts<br />
of the garment such as<br />
sleeves, collar, skirt<br />
and main body.

MAKING PROCESS
Making process for a final<br />
line up garment. Using<br />
neoprene bonded with<br />
printed heavy satin as<br />
the main fabric, and<br />

IDENTITYY<br />
YMC designer Fraser<br />
Moss, Inspired by his<br />
love and knowledge<br />
of subversive music<br />
and arts, vintage<br />
militaria and work<br />
wear, creates directional<br />
yet timeless<br />
garments slightly<br />
outside the norm of<br />
fashion trends but as<br />
such stand the test<br />
of time.
The 1980’s Blade Runner<br />
captured part of the<br />
new wave/post punk subculture,<br />
and was a staple<br />
for stylistic retro-future<br />
fashionable<br />
film culture. This classic<br />
was then remade, as<br />
style culture that inspired<br />
it and itself influenced<br />
returned for a<br />
new-new wave of modern<br />
popular film and fashion<br />
aesthetic and styling.<br />
For this project,<br />
the focus was on maintaining<br />
the timeless<br />
silhouettes and colour<br />
palette of the original<br />
Blade Runner with<br />
the added richness,<br />
contrast and vibrancy<br />
of the new. Applying<br />
a modernised touch to<br />
retro styling.<br />
