Scripted

Food is everywhere nowadays. it is instantly available in restaurants and stores, advertised on every corner of the street and has also been sneakily integrated into our social media feeds.

Have you ever paused to become aware of the context in which you are making food choices?

The project started with research into the (invisible) communication that happens between food & humans. The findings from the research were then translated into speculative future scenarios. Each of the scenarios describes a different futuristic world where the way in which we engage with food has changed completely.

These scenarios were eventually used to create experiential eating performances. The performances were all scripted around the future of our food choices.

The experiential dinner is a three-course meal that serves different future perspectives. With each course the setting of the restaurant changes in every aspect. Going from authorative to informative to … , the participants always start to discuss and speculate about the future of our food system. This event leads to great discussions, fun interactions between participants and one conclusion: none of the offered perspectives is ideal nor desired.
