Lovely Sunday New York Times article about Botanicalls and plants underlying native communication methods by Diane Ackerman. It includes what we believe to be the first published use in lower case of “botanicalling.” Maybe this signals our entry into the American lexicon?

Botanicalls is first in the list of Wired Magazine’s “21 Awesome DIY Projects” this month! It’s part of a terriifc article that features our friend Limor Fried talking about making stuff. Thanks to Christina Bonnington for including the Botanicalls kits!

Botanicalls was featured in the Winstom-Salem Journal‘s Living Section on February 26th and in the Home Section of the Baltimore Sun on January 27, 2009 and The Hong Kong Standard on February 17, 2009.

The soon-to-be-released Botanicalls Kit made an appearance in this month’s issue of Wired Magazine. Clive Thompson’s article “Build It. Share It. Profit. Can Open Source Hardware Work?” give the inside scoop on the beloved Arduino and includes comments from our good friends Tom Igoe and Limor Fried. Check out page 172 for a glimpse of the leaf board!
