So they're spinning these tiny nano fibers of pure cellulose.

Over time, these tiny threads form in the liquid into layers and produce a mat on the surface.

The fields of corn and date palm trees with soft and tender spathes,

And fields and palm trees, with delicate tendrils?

sown fields, and palms with slender spathes?

And corn fields and palm trees whereof the spathes are fine?

And green crops (fields etc.) and date palms with soft spadix.

And fields, and palm trees whose fruits are delicious?

and cornfields and date palms laden with juicy fruits?

And tilled fields and heavy sheathed palm trees,

farms and date palms with dainty spathes

sown fields and palmtrees, with slender spathes.

And fields of crops and palm trees with softened fruit?

farms, and palm trees in thick groves,

And cornfields and palm trees having fine spadices?

and cornfields, and palm trees laden with fruit

And corn fields and date palms with spathes near breaking (with the weight of fruit)?

When the sunlight comes through the window you see these little fibers.

They extend long and delicate branches, and in short, they look like trees.

So I replaced the metal armature with a soft, fine mesh of a fiber 15 times stronger than steel.

So now we not only have a high fiber bread, but now fiber on top of fiber.

You see how the filament you see how several filaments are coming together, therefore making this supercluster of galaxies.

So all of those colored lines correspond to bunches of axons, the fibers that join cell bodies to synapses.

This is a parasitic wasp, again, two millimeters long, slender, a very quick and sharp flier.

Down at the very base of it, there's fiber optics that work better than ours, actually, to move light, but you can tie them in a knot they're incredibly flexible.

And they're sticking together, forming layers and giving us a sheet on the surface.

Now I'm going to mark on the toughness values for nylon fiber, bombyx or domesticated silkworm silk wool, Kevlar, and carbon fibers.

But we activate targets in the brain, different ones, using that optical fiber array I told you about in the previous slide, in order to try and figure out which targets can cause the brain to overcome that memory of fear.

You have to put in hundreds of microscopic wires to record from little tiny individual neurons ordinary fibers that put out tiny signals that are microvolts.

Then I used fibers out of my jumper, which I held and stretched.

We're also combining cellulases, the enzymes that break down complex sugars into simple sugars and fermentation in the same cell for producing ethanol.

The cable over there, that's an optical fiber.

I'm essentially using a kombucha recipe, which is a symbiotic mix of bacteria, yeasts and other micro organisms, which spin cellulose in a fermentation process.

Bacterial cellulose is actually already being used for wound healing, and possibly in the future for biocompatible blood vessels, possibly even replacement bone tissue.

At this point, it's really heavy.

And Charlton Heston is made of a floating fiber, which I took out of the air.

And the actual roof is made up of a fiber, which I found in my sister's old teddy bear.

61 189. International Year of Natural Fibres, 2009

Fiber next generation way of communicating.

The frame and radii of this web is made up of one type of silk, while the capture spiral is a composite of two different silks the filament and the sticky droplet.

You've got bran, which is probably the healthiest part of the bread for us, or the fiber for us because it is just loaded with fiber, for the bran is fiber.

And it is all out of carbon fiber.
