Growing Organic Houses

How would you like to grow your own home out of meat? Agast vegetarians need not worry, the meat is created in a laboratory not culled from sentient creatures. Perhaps those of you wishing to start a community would like to grow your houses by manipulating trees and shrubbery. Apparently all of this is possible. Take a look at this Ted Talk for a taster: http://www.ted.com/talks/mitchell_joachim_don_t_build_your_home_grow_it.html
(Thanks to Dave Griffiths from the Groworld community for forwarding the link).

Came upon a giant patch of Fly Agaric fungi recently as part of my Interdimensional Investigation Project. Fungi are a facinating and absolutely magical organism. I would love to live in a house grown out of fungi....well actually given how damp my house is at the moment my wish has probably come true. Alas.
