My project is for a biodegradable single use lid made from mycelium. Current single use lids, even paper lids contain plastic that is harmful to the environment since it will never break down. Additionally most plastic lids are never recycled since they are so small and often contain food contaminants.

As a Chinese-Australian second-generation immigrant I have often faced difficulties connecting and familiarising myself with my heritage and family.My project aims to solve this through a functional redesign of the red envelope - an Asian cultural staple - combatting its associated disposability to encourage cultural transmission across generations.This will be accomplished through striking contemporary design (visual and functional) that can appeal to both traditional and modern, young audiences.I'm seeking the help of graphics and communications design professionals and physical packaging designers for my project.

As a songwriter, I experience how repeated exposure to musical phrases causes the brain to filter out sound, reducing engagement and emotional impact—hindering productivity. My project is an app that addresses onset and recovery, helping music creators stay engaged and produce better music with fewer interruptions.The app combats auditory satiation by:1. Early Detection: An algorithm detects repetition patterns and provides real-time warnings.2. Accelerated Recovery: Using EMDR therapy, the app resets cognitive processing, restoring engagement without long breaks, improving workflow efficiency.I’m seeking to connect with supporters working in or studying psychology, and musicians for my survey: https://forms.gle/jEuwiabUSgJskbVS7
