The same invisible threshold stands between us and the future of our materials — and on the other side of it sits something remarkable: a fibre grown on our own heads, cleansed by science, spun into something purposeful. Softer than prejudice. Stronger than habit. The only thing standing in the way is not technology. It is the way we see.
