Unidentified Food Objects
BOOK | EXHIBITION
Unidentified Food Objects is a speculative “cookbook” based on my research at the MIT Media Lab, and includes public contributions.
It is a snapshot of my imagination of how people might eat, cook, and share food in outer space.
Illustrations by Yilan Gao.
The book and limited edition prints were printed using risography by ppppress at MIT.
