What if we lose all our animal biodiversity?
In a futuristic world, what would happen if there are not animals left? A speculative design project for the Food systems class. Series of projections that tell us about this issue
Food Systems: Interventions + Remediations
A curated exhibition of projects representing the final work from students in the Spring 2016 section of Food Systems.
A short documentary about food waste in which 2 ITP students try to understand why we waste so much food; A campaign aimed at working with Brooklyn farmers and restaurants to save “ugly” food produce , a soil analysis made with Arduino that talks about the importance of composting. Our goal is to educate people about food, especially about food waste. With these projects, we want to not only create awareness about the topic but also to discuss the possible solutions to it and what we can do on our daily basis. This exhibition should stand next to the project “Trash Talk”, submitted by Dana Abrassart.

trash/talk is a trash can that talks back. In doing so, it attempts to bring awareness to the usually mindless act of throwing waste away.
Fairly mundane looking from the outside, trash/talk then catches the unwitting off guard by displaying images of the ultimate demise of trash in NYC.
Finally, trash/talk offers an alternative to wasteful products.
***NB. We may try to amend the project before the show to change the output, but the idea and technical are working beautifully.
