Imminent Food Futures

As the quality of soil and land deteriorates, the current scale and methods of food production will not be sustainable, Places will become food desserts, global supply chains unreliable and unable to support a growing population

Instead, we imagine food production will need to get downsized and localized to the individual level through the use of bioreactors, which in controlled conditions will allow people the capacity to produce their own raw ingredients.

With the introduction of bioreactors to the kitchen space we embrace expansive technologies like synthetic biology that work to expand and optimize our collaboration with biological methods of production

By supporting and sustaining biologically active environments within the household, new and sustainable sustenance is created. giving people agency over their food production. 

We imagine this ad-hoc infrastructure of food production being built by repurposed remnants of our current unsustainable consumption habits. Finding use in the abundance of discarded plastics and other polymers we are bound to have available to us. With nutrient-intensive biomass as the main ingredient, more amorphous-looking food will be served at the table and leveraging ad-hoc modes of cooking create new opportunities through ways of consumption in post food-scarcity future.
