thinking outside the box, like taking something you might normally find on your dinner table and turning it into building material. some innovative bioengineers meeting at the california college of the arts showed us technologies that can do exactly that. here's abc seven news meteorologist drew tuma. >> if you're building a house on mars, you might want to consider mushroom roots. >> a lander putting the pre-seeded mycelium structure there. >> and maybe throw a little hemp into the mix for a housing development in oakland. >> and it basically acts as a glue and it binds the agricultural waste. this agricultural waste is actually either landfilled or burned. >> and why not add in some eggshell bricks just to round out the recipe? just ask claire lefler, architectural research fellow at the california college of the arts, which is joining with several companies to explore the power and possibilities of so-called bio materials. >> i think we just wanted to show kind of the potential and different boundaries that architecture is starting to

break. >> the potential is drawing architects and bio engineers from across the country into the conversation. kris bowers red house studio uses mycelium, or the root system of fungi, to create building materials from plants and organic waste in places like africa. they're also working with nasa ames on a concept that would transport mushroom seed stock to grow structures on a someday mars space station. >> yeah, the plan is to go with an inflatable structure that has an exterior shell of bioreactors, so you could take grams of microorganisms and grow them into millions of tons of building materials. >> it's a concept that's also getting off the ground right here in the bay area. arthur vanek is with software design innovator autodesk. they're working with architects in west oakland to reduce the carbon footprint of a major housing development by using a mycelium and hemp material for the exterior. >> and so we're lowering the total embodied carbon in the building by 20%, just by replacing the skin of the

>> i know that you were working on this for how many years? five years? >> yeah, five and a half years. five and a half years. >> i feel like he must have been hard to let go. >> yeah, very hard to let go. i was working on this for so long, and i put my heart, my everything into it. bob dylan is an american legend and american folk hero. and i hope we did this movie justice. we cover the early period of his life in 1961 and 1965, and cover bob's traversing from the folk movement of america into rock and roll, into going electric. >> the acclaimed cast includes two more oscar nominees, monica barbaro as joan baez and edward norton as folk legend pete seeger. >> the ship comes in. >> he was the exemplar of what it meant to be an artist and a humanist. you know. >> he played him so well. >> oh. thank you. well, i felt i felt a lot of responsibility to his spirit and his family. the whole thing was just a privilege. >> if you could sit down with bob dylan, just the two of you in a room, you get to ask him anything. >> i would just say thank you. thank you for all your your

music and your art. not even thank you for the opportunity. just thank you for everything you've already given to american culture, because we're all better off for it. >> i did sit down with bob dylan in a room. >> one conversation that will stay with you forever. >> he talked about the loneliness of being a folk singer, that when you're all alone on stage, that part of his desire to ultimately have a band wasn't based on changing music history, but was just that. that he yearned to have a band and friends. >> if bob dylan's writing period was so prolific in the early 60s, some people said it was almost as if god was speaking through bob. i feel like i had a smidgen of that, of that grace wash off on me. >> i'm joelle gargiulo, abc news. >> from all the glamor on the red carpet to the emotional acceptance speeches, catch all the oscar magic sunday right here on abc seven. and for the first time, the oscars will stream live on hulu as well. disney, of course, the parent company of hulu and abc seven. >> all right, let's update the forecast one last time as we get a fairly nice stretch of weather.

>> that's right. let's get to meteorologist sandhya patel for the week ahead. sandhya. >> yeah, the week ahead is going to feature warmer weather. ama and dan, i know this morning you probably felt like i just want to crawl back into bed and go to bed. but tomorrow you're going to want to get up and go. because this that you're seeing on live doppler seven gray skies and sprinkles will be long gone. we're going to see plenty of sun temperatures low to upper 60s for most areas. wednesday's even warmer. we're going to pop in some mid 70s and look at thursday. it's still well above average heading into your friday as well. a lot of 60 and 70. now, if you're wondering about the rain chances. nothing showing up here until the weekend. our first chance will be saturday. our second opportunity for wet weather on sunday. and as we take a look here, there are other storms that will be coming in later on next week. so here's a look at the accuweather seven day forecast. we do have mild weather in store. warming it up for you. wednesday thursday above average. still on friday even though the temperatures start to scale back. and then for the weekend, we head into march and it's going to cool off.

chances of showers for both saturday and oscar sunday, and then closer to average in terms of our temperatures on monday. so we've got some changes. >> we've got to pay attenti. >> yes. >> so that we're ready to go. >> that's right. >> thanks. all right. chris alvarez is here. a lot of sports to talk about. >> yeah. pay attention to the warriors these days because they are playing well. the nba should take notice. warriors continue to roll. jimmy butler is in the lineup. hall of famer rick barry gives me his take on jimmy buckets. plus justin verlander makes his cactus league debut with the giants. how did he do? sports is ne

it was a perfect day at chase center yesterday. not only did the warriors win and jimmy butler's home debut against the mavericks, but the headliner, andre iguodala. number nine jersey retirement. his medallion you see right there was unveiled outside chase center in the morning before the game. and then after the game his number nine lifted high up into the chase center rafters. the four time nba champ, 2015 nba finals mvp, became just the seventh player in franchise history to have his number retired. that is quite an honor and becomes the first in this championship era to earn that distinction. >> what i saw from the organization, what i saw from the players, the coaching staff, i saw something special building, and i saw the joy in the game of basketball. one thing i did know was put myself in a position to help others be

great. and we had a perfect team, perfect setup, not just on the court, but on the coaching staff, front office. >> andre coming to this team really was the beginning in many, many ways of this great dynasty. and he was, you know, all puzzles, all teams are puzzles. all organizations are puzzles. you have to have the right pieces. he was the critical piece, in my opinion, in our opinion, to why this team became as great as it is. >> that was the first time i kind of noticed or was aware, like, hey, you know, guys see what we're capable of? and a guy like andre who's, you know, one of the smartest guys in any room he walks into. and when he, you know, came with that energy of, i love i love what you're doing. i love how y'all do it. congrats. whatever. whatever he said to then be able to get him in free agency that unlocked just so much confidence for us that we're on the right path and the rest is history. >> it sure is. jimmy butler scored 18 points and was a plus 28 in his home debut. that means

the warriors were very, very effective when he was on the floor. dubs improved to five and one since he's joined the lineup, and jimmy became just the first player in franchise history to have 120 plus points, 30 plus rebounds, 30 plus assists through his first six games with the team. that's pretty good. i caught up with warriors great hall of famer rick barry to get his take on butler's impact. >> well, i think they need a player like jimmy because now you have another player with five seconds to go. you can put the ball in jimmy's hands and he can make something happen. and that's a rare thing to find in a player. and i think, i personally think i'm seeing a renewed enthusiasm from jimmy and the way he's approaching the game, and he's not a selfish player by any stretch of the imagination. and so he's an important cog. he gets his shot going. this team could be very dangerous. so i'm the eternal optimist. so i'm pulling for him. >> i think all of dub nation is pulling for jimmy and the warriors. just last week i was in arizona checking in with the giants ahead of a crucial 2025 campaign. the orange and black are looking to get back to the postseason for the first time since 21. they clinched the nl west that year with a franchise

record 107 regular season wins. of course, they lost e dodgers in the playoffs. rockies and giants split squad action justin verlander spring debut off to a nice start. nolan jones striking out looking in the first but next batter michael toglia tags verlander the solo shot off the future hall of famer. two innings pitched a homer allowed. it is spring training, so they're working on things. how about jungwoo? lee suffered a season ending shoulder injury in may. looks pretty good right there. first spring home run goes and the game ends in a22 tie. spring training you want to play extra innings. they had a split squad okay. but going back to andre iguodala steph told a funny story. and a reporter asked me the question like what was one of your favorite moments with andre? and he kind of hesitated and he goes, i don't know. he might get mad at me telling the story, but basically when they won the title in 2015, he said, andre is not a real big drinker, but we got him to take a tequila shot. >> and how'd that go? >> i think it went good. they had a couple a couple more shots after because they had three more titles, so i thought that was kind of funny. he kind of

let that story out. he should have had him try that gentleman's cut that steph's new whiskey. >> oh yeah. but it wasn't developed yet. maybe they can have some marketing later. yeah, absolutely. thanks, chris. >> all right. tonight on abc seven at 8:00, you can watch the bachelor. that's followed by the secret lives of mormon wives at ten. always stay with us for abc seven news at 11. remember that we are streaming 24 over seven. you can get the abc seven bay area app, and that way you can join us whenever you want. wherever you are, we're always with you. thanks for joining us tonight. i'm ama daetz. >> and i'm dan ashley for sandyha patel, chris alvarez, all of us. we appreciate your time. have a great evening and we'll see you again at 11. >> i'm reggie aqui. >> i'm lyanne melendez. >> i'm luz pena i'm tara. >> campbell i'm j.r. stone at. >> abc seven news we deliver local stories with real.
