-==== gro 'off world' ====
+The groWorld initiative is FoAM's interstice between ecology, culture and technology. It brings together three ‘forces’ capable of transforming the world on human and ecological scale: design, permaculture and technology. These three strands of inquiry inform and support each other, aiming to forge new symbiotic relationships between the post-industrial human societies and the rest of the Earth:
-  * "How do you get plants to grow on Mars?" http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2005/05aug_nostress.htm?list179029
+{sym} works on ecologically inspired, biomimetic and biomorphic, eco-scale culture. In progress see: [[groworld_directions]], [[groworld design 200708]], [[groworld_related]]
-  * "The Physics of Space Gardens" http://science.nasa.gov/ppod/y2003/21apr_greenbubble.htm
+{bio} is the ‘down-to-earth’ strand, applying itself to urban (re)vegetation, gardening and nourishment. In progress see [[category_gardens]], [[foam_food]], [[Biodiversity]], [[Project Groworld Adelaide]], [[Project Groworld Bristol]]
-==== places ====
+{sys} invovles research and development of ‘electric green’ technology, able to shed light, circulate energy, purify the elements, shelter or adorn a place in which all living things can delight. In progress see [[category botany]], [[hpi]], [[groworld game]], [[groworld tiergarten]], [[augmented foraging]]
