'White Fungus' came all the way from Taichung City, Taiwan. It's the 11th Issue of 'an ongoing experiment in community media art. As the spores have been released its creators look forward to seeing which way the wind blows. The only thing more uncertain than its future is its past.' Get introduced to "kings of noise" Hijokaidan from Japan, see new work by Yao Jui-Chung and listen to the white fungus compilation produced by pogus.
