Simona Stano starts us out at Food for Thought thinking through the conference’s symbolic image: as a rubik’s cube, a puzzle to figure out together.
This image is also an attempt to conceal food’s materiality (flavor, texture, substances) and meanings under a common “form,” which is impossible given food’s breadth and diversity.
This slide summarizes who we all are presenting at this conference and our topics and goals for the two days to come.
