Experimentations departing from the observation that the Agave Sansevieria (Woman in Law’s Tongue) hardly ever flowers in the Lower Countries. Maybe banana-hormones could ‘talk’ to them ?…

This strand of research builds further on ‘Nube de Oro‘, work on -and with- the Agave, in Oaxaca (Mex.).

‘Hoopgas TestLLLab’ is developed in collaboration with Baltanlaboratories as part of Technoecologies, with technical support by Patrick de Koning. With financial support from the Creative Industries Fund NL. In partnership with the Department MeBioS (University of Leuven) and Flanders Center for Postharvest Technology.

Special thanks to: Peter De Roy (Tipozero, Letterpress Workshop); the banana(peel)-´donateurs´ and Holst Centre (High Tech Campus, Eindhoven).
