Baukunst Study Groups are short, collaborative projects where the participants dive into new areas of inquiry. Each Study Group is designed to inspire collective members both in their domain knowledge and in applying their brains, bodies, and spirits to wholly new directions.

In our first Study Group, Mycelium as Mode, we set out to inquire about the vast world of mushrooms, exploring the terrain from multiple vantage points — from wellness and investment in psychedelics — to materiality and even, mycelium as a metaphor for building.

Baukunst is a collective of creative technologists building companies at the frontiers of technology and design.  It is our belief that the most interesting and transformative companies are built not by a ‘genius founder’ but in community with a network of individuals working in concert to pursue a central vision. We apply this perspective to how we inquire and learn.

Baukunst is committed to investigating, exploring, and improvising within a group setting in order to fuel one another’s ideas and elevate the quality of our discoveries.
