Abstract Leveraging generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), we have transformed a dataset comprising 1000 scientific papers focused on biological materials into comprehensive ontological knowledge graph. Through an in-depth structural analysis of this graph, calculated node degrees, identified communities along with their connectivities, and evaluated clustering coefficients betweenness centrality pivotal nodes, uncovering fascinating architectures. We find that the graph has inherently scale-free nature, shows high level connectedness, can be used as rich source for downstream reasoning by taking advantage transitive isomorphic properties to reveal insights unprecedented interdisciplinary relationships answer queries, identify gaps in knowledge, propose never-before-seen material designs, predict behaviors. Using large language embedding model compute deep representations use combinatorial similarity ranking develop path sampling strategy allows us link dissimilar concepts previously not been related. One comparison revealed detailed parallels between Beethoven’s 9th Symphony, highlighting shared patterns complexity through mapping. In another example, algorithm proposed innovative hierarchical mycelium-based composite based integrating principles extracted from Kandinsky’s ‘Composition VII’ painting. The resulting integrates set include balance chaos order, adjustable porosity, mechanical strength, complex patterned chemical functionalization. uncover other isomorphisms across science, technology art, revealing nuanced ontology immanence context-dependent heterarchical interplay constituents. Because our method transcends established disciplinary boundaries diverse data modalities (graphs, images, text, numerical data, etc), graph-based AI achieves far higher degree novelty, explorative capacity, technical detail, than conventional approaches establishes widely useful framework innovation hidden connections.

Despite recent advances in 3D printing and additive manufacturing, the main materials rapid prototyping are derived from finite resources such as petroleum-based plastics. Researchers developing alternatives to exhaustible potentially environmentally harmful through biomaterials. Mycelium biocomposites one promising area of inquiry; when mycelium decomposes biomass, it produces a composite biomaterial, which is fully compostable has beneficial structural hydrophobic properties. However, mold-based fabrication methods for require tooling limit possible shapes. We introduce novel method directly without need molds or tooling. Our comprises three contributions: Mycofluid, mycelium-inoculated paste that uses spent coffee grounds, recycled biomass; Fungibot, custom hardware system biopastes like Mycofluid; incubating mycelial growth within fresh prints resulting biocomposite parts. illustrate our contributions series objects showcasing material qualities Notably, we demonstrate how living can fuse separate prints, enabling complex geometries otherwise challenging print part.
