What a great rabbit hole topic! I loved this video. I’m adding The Way Through The Woods to my tbr, thanks. I’ll repay you by recommending a speculative fiction novella steeped in the mushroom world that I enjoyed - The Beauty by Aliya Whiteley.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Thank you, I will look out for it. She's also the author of that book I mentioned (for which Natalie wrote a review/video). I think she likes mushrooms a lot (the author).

Your mushroom collection! In awe. Also feel you on the going deeper and deeper into mushroom (/fungi) fascination. Oh I love that Sheldrake grew mushrooms on his book, what a nerdy (and fun) thing to do. I have to watch that! I just started Entangled Life and have a feeling I'll really enjoy it. This was so great, thanks for bringing this all together - I'll be sure to check all of these resources out!

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Knowing you, you are DEFINITLEY going to enjoy Entangled Life. It's got that right balance of science-to nature-to human quality to it. Thank you for introducing us to one of the books on the list.

I'm in Florida and my husband and I have taken to the outdoors more during this covid time. We've become birders and novice naturalists; mushrooms have become particularly intriguing to me. I read The Hidden Life of Trees and seem to remember Wohlleben terms the mycelium network as the wood wide web. Oh, how I love a clever pun! :) My husband bought me Entangled Life and I am so looking forward to it - it's my next read! He loves reishi (especially when made into a hot chocolate/cocoa) and I have a new batch of chaga for tea. What a extraordinary world we live in, especially at the micro level. The more I see of nature, the more I immerse myself in it, and read about it, the more fascinating I find it. Aaaand thank you for furthering my fascination with your video! Will be on the lookout for your recs. I believe we are most alive when we are curious and stay curious.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Oh that's so wonderful, to have someone with you who is really interested. I hope you enjoy many mushroom adventures together. Yes, I saw that some companies really capitalize on the "mushroom is a pathogen" and super charge for them, but if you got to a bulk health store you can find these in huge quantities for a lot less and just mix them with cocoa. I hope you read some of these and enjoy them!

@booksatthebottomofthestair8446 3 года назад

Fascinating. There are several books here I am going to check out. We have several different kinds growing in our backyard. People say it’s a sign of sour soil, but now, I think it means mushrooms like it here.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

I wouldn't worry about the soil, mushrooms kind of grow on anything. Based on the documentaries, I feel like mushrooms are everywhere and constantly connected to each other world-wide.

@ThatsSoPoe 3 года назад

This was so cool!!😆 I love your deep dives into obscure topics. 🥰 I don't know if I'm ready to pick up one of the more academic texts, but I'm adding The Way Through the Woods to my TBR. Also, you should totally read Mexican Gothic - one of the characters in that is super into mushrooms too.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Thank you Shannon! I keep hearing about Mexican Gothic from everyone but I think I'll wait for it to be in paperback, but it's on my list for sure.

@evastrange 3 года назад

Haha, I love the skit with the drums! 😄 Personally I find mushrooms/fungi rather revolting and am glad that there are enough other people who concern themselves with them. :)

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

That is fair enough. My little sister absolutely loathes mushrooms. She can't be near them, so I can understand that.

I read The Hidden Life of Trees (and loved it)! It's all happening underground . . . a friend down the Eastern Shore found a field of magic mushrooms after learning how to identify them, and has been in the mushroom enthusiast world ever since. The scene early in LOTR where Sam and Frodo get a mushroom dinner from a Hobbit farmer when they spend the night there comes to mind. Tolkien was certainly a mushroom lover.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

No doubt! The more I learn about nature and re-read Lord of the Rings, I see so much more that I love in the details. I am actually very deep in a Tolkien book as we speak (I'll talk about it at the end of the month).

@not2tees 3 года назад

@@InfiniteText By the way, I found the movie of Fantastic Fungi here on RU-vid and watched it and shared it around with several friends - so inspiring and excellent! Thank you so much for recommending it! I certainly look forward to the Tolkien book review later this month.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Right? Nature writing is simply wonderful! I do love mushrooms :) do you have a favourite type of nature writing or specific topic you enjoy?

@RovingReader 3 года назад

@@InfiniteText I really just like anything that inspires me to get outside more and reminds me of the benefits of nature. I also love books on climate change and reminding me how important it is to protect nature. I’m not sure there is any nature writing I wouldn’t like lol.

@josmith5992 3 года назад

So happy I found this- prepare for a ramble 😉. I think it was actually The Overstory that first started me on the mycelium/fungi fascination although Oregon is a fabulous place for mushrooms- we can buy many different types at our farmers market throughout the year and I believe the Radical Mycology guy is based here. I also really enjoyed Michael Pollan’s writing on psilocybin in How to Change Your Mind and the use of it for mental health care has just been legalized in Oregon. Also loved Entangled Life! Covid led to medicinal mushroom products flying off the shelves apparently because of their health benefits- I take a tincture made out of seven myself sometimes when I need a boost! The whole thing about mycoremediation is fascinating, I have just started Paul Stamets book Mycelium Running and I believe it’s going to cover that as well as other ways mushrooms can benefit the planet. I’ve struggled to find a good guide for my area but did come across an app called Picture mushroom which identifies them from photos and so far it seems to be pretty accurate. I do need a guide though. Thank you so much for all the recommendations Andreea - I was about to go and see Fantastic Fungi at the cinema when Covid happened so it’s great to know you can buy it. I love all your mushroom paraphernalia and will enjoy following your mushroom journey!

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

your comment was better than the books! Oooh maybe you'll get to meet the radical mycology guy. I love chaga personally, I Have many products from that company that makes chaga mushroom face creams. I just love finding them on walks! I'm going to download picture mushroom! That sounds awesome, I never heard of it! You are very welcome! All the stuff I mentioned are linked in the description box.

I love what you are wearing. The cute mushrooms on your couch😱😍🍄 your lamp wow. Skin cream? wow so curious about that. I understand🤎...if we take more attention on these little beings, which they seem small, but when you read about the Mycelium colony bellow us...is fascinating! how important and crucial are they. Again thank you so much for sharing your thoughs about this topic. I love it!!!!! and these books...I know Chanterelle dreams, is a good one to keep as a reference. I do wished it had pictures. I have something about fungi books, and I do love them more when they also include pictures of the mushrooms too📚🍄🌲🤎

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Thanks! I sewed the patch of mushrooms on a vest (from an older cardigan with the mushrooms). I linked everything in the description box. They are mostly either independent little artsy shops or etsy stores. I love the lamps so much. Mushrooms made aware of the magic around us. I wish it had pictures too!!! Well it's very useful for art purposes to have more pictures I'm sure, I do like some of the ones you feature on your channel when you reference your art

@@InfiniteText Lovely🍄 So sweet your reply!!! Thank you💚 I have been watching your videos this weekend quite a lot I have to say. You really sparkled on me a new joy of reading in other paths I have not thought before. Like your passion for Sylvia Plath. I am feeling so curious about poetry now. I would like this coming holidays to immerse myself in her poems. With your feeling, which one would you recommend me to start with?📚🤎 Thank you for sharing your insights!! I love them so much.

@thetbrdiaries 3 года назад

I hadn't heard of a few of these! I have Entangled Life to read, and The Hidden Life of Trees was already on my wishlist but now I have even more incentive. I read How to Change your Mind last year, which is about psychedelics more broadly but it definitely piqued my interest in fungi/mushrooms 🍄

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Pollan was in one of the documentaries I mentioned! The first one narrated by Brie Larson. He talked a lot in the second half on psychedelics. You might really enjoy that documentary

@BlatantlyBookish 3 года назад

I love this video Andreea! I've long been in awe of the esthetics of mushrooms, but I have yet to read extensively about them. I'm definitely adding some of these to my TBR. Which types of mushrooms are your favorites (mostly in appearance, but also just in general)?

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

Thank you! I know, they are so aesthetically pleasing! I love how turkey tails and oyster mushrooms look when they grow on trees. I love the look. But my favourite is this one that we used to collect in Romania, it's kind of like a coral-looking mushroom known as Ramaria flava in its scientific name, but our Romanian nickname for it was "the goat's beard" and we used to collect these and pickle them for winter. But its coral look was just really neat!

@BlatantlyBookish 3 года назад

Thank you for all the mushroom names! When I have a spare moment and a bit of artistic motivation I'll look them up and draw a bit.

@BlatantlyBookish 3 года назад

Alright.... I didn't really have time, but I looked them up now anyway. The mushrooms on trees are GORGEOUS. My parents have a tree in their backyard that has to be cut down full of fungi. I took pictures last time I was there and thought of you! The Ramaria flava is so interesting! It really does look like coral. In fact, it looks too much like coral for me to want to draw it I think.

@InfiniteText 3 года назад

@@BlatantlyBookish do it!!! I read somewhere that we know when something is beautiful because the hand immediately wants to draw it
