Hello everyone,

we have received another task from Manuela. The selected pictures of Manuela on our Miro board have to be uploaded in the right size.

>>> upload the images in 300 ppi and also they should be more or less A4 size so 210mmx297mm 

(https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_lUyPm6Q=/)

It would be great if you could do it as soon as possible 🙂

Have a nice weekend.

Kind regards

Dear Teams,

Ms. Manuela Catania is asking for two lines of description in English for your project.  Since she needs to add on the wall beside the QR CODE.  Please send that to me via my email (benny.leong@polyu.edu.hk)  best before the end of tomorrow (16 March, Tuesday). 

Thank you much for your attention.

regards

Benny

Dear O

Hi Estelle and All,

Here under are the answers for your questions:

(1) Maximum 5 independent pictures/photos for each project team. Each selected picture/photo should be visually impactful and its file size should be sufficient for A4 print out(DEADLINE: before next Wednesday, 3 March) 

(2) Each project will require ONE QR code. The QR code should connect viewers to a self-running presentation – a concise version of KISD presentation. (DEADLINE: also by next Wednesday, 3 March) 

(3) Based on the self-running presentation, each team need to prepare a short VIDEO seperately.  Then, we need a volunteer to help to put all short videos together into ONE final video which include the following information:

—[a] the NAME of the collaboration;

—[b] Names and Logos of KISD and PolyU Design;

—[c] a short introduction + time frame of this joint intiative. 

—[d] Names of design, corresponding team members and the project tutors (Philipp, Benny and Stefan).

(DEADLINE: by March 14) 

 

(4) Each group propse one ‘representational’ scent/ spice/flavour for your project (Ms. Manuela Catania will help to purchase and prepare that in Italy)(DEADLINE: by the end of tomorrow, 27 Feb) 

 

Hope that’s clear to you.  

regards Benny

 

Benny and I had a meeting with Manuela from the Biennale today and we kindly ask you to put your diaries on the Miro board as mentioned below, add the one key contact to address for the Biennale – and additionally share max. 5 photos with us where Benny and I could select 1 or 2. Those images will then be exhibited on the walls, with a QR code next to it linking to a self-running presentation (basically your KISD presentation, but shortened). In addition, we would need a volunteer to put the short sequences together, add information (KISD, PolyU, Participants, Time Frame etc) so that it is self-explanatory. It will be shown at the Biennale as well. More info on the miro…

I just left a note on the miro board:

Please all put your Project Diaries (or links) at our presentation board. https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_lUyPm6Q=/

We also opened a frame there for some more visual material we ask you to share with us so that we could prepare a short movie of the story of our project (your commensality exercises, visual impressions of your research eg in shops etc.). Task will be this week to find a way with Manuela, the curator, to best exhibit your works.

So would be awesome if you could do this as Benny and I will talk to Manuela on WED morning. Let me / us know if you have any questions!

 

To all: Marius, Estelle and I created new board: https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_lUyPm6Q=/

Please have a look at it and put your PDF or link to the Google presentation there as we want to share this with the audience afterwards.

Hey guys,

as mentioned yesterday for the introduction of our presentation we need 1 image and 1 sentence that describes the outcome of each group on the miro frame called “FRIDAY PRESENTATION INTRODUCTION”.
By now we are still missing Group, 3,4 and 6. Please post your stuff asap so I can export the frame and see what you want me to say about your project in time!
Thanks.

Also here is the link for the zoom presentation room for tomorrow:
Meeting ID: 898 5376 5886

https://th-koeln.zoom.us/j/89853765886

OUR PROJECT IS SCHEDULED FOR 13:55PM (German Time). PLEASE BE THERE AT LEAST 10 MINUTES EARLY. 

For everyone that is interested, the other public presentations will already start at 11:00am (German Time).

Also we will have the opportunity to test if the breakout rooms idea is working at 10:00am. So if some of you would be there to try it with us that would be nice. 

See you tomorrow! 🙂

Thanks again for the excellent work and presentations you made last Tuesday, I was very impressed what you achieved in the last week!

Tomorrow at 1300 (Cologne) / 2000 (HK) we will meet for max 2 hrs to clarify some final questions for the KISD internal presentation that will take place this Thursday at 1400 (Cologne). As you know, this presentation will be around 20 mins, Benny and I will briefly introduce the project context and setting and then the groups will share their outcomes. Of course we can invite the audience to go deeper into single presentations (eg on a dedicated miro board). We could also think of giving a 5 mins overview and then inviting the audience (around 100 students) to join one of the breakoutrooms (we could install 7 of them) where the groups could present longer…so this is left up to you guys, but let´s discuss your suggestion including a pre-final draft of your presentation tomorrow.

As Benny shared the “Project Diary” structure and comments with you, this would be your documentation and course report at KISD.

Benny and I would then – around next week – have a look at your submitted work, your visuals and see how this could fit into the setting of the March Biennale in Italy. We will get back to you by the end of February and have a quick meeting ob March 2 with a few of you to clarify opportunities and work to do for the Biennale contribution.

So far for today – see you guys tomorrow!

 

The joint project will center around the challenges and opportunities of the issues of ‘changing habits during the Covid pandemic’ and ‘food value (ecological, economical, social/societal…) which we all are confronting and anticipating at the moment, and still likely to encounter in a foreseeable future.

In this international joint project, students from various cultural backgrounds (gathered from both KISD and PolyU Design HongKong) would require to team up (3-4 persons per group) and respond to the following questions with a critical, provocative design:

  • How relevant are local cultural heritages to the challenges of food production, waste, and safety?
  • How could a food preparing, cooking, or dining experience at home become enjoyable yet meaningful at the midst of (and after) the COVID-19 pandemic?
  • How would such experiences be conducted and promoted eco-friendly, effectively, efficiently, and economically among family members, friends
    and personal social networks?
  • How does digitalization influence the way we prepare, enjoy, and share food/meals, and which new opportunities, practices, and habits emerge?

We will meet every Tuesday at 1200 UTC (1300 Cologne or 2000 HK) – and occasionally on some Thursdays.

Our Miro board can be found here: https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_kg7u6Js=/

We meet online in zoom at http://zoom.us/j/5504004040  using the code 2020 (new!)

Here we collect all about the team … to get to know each other without physically meeting!

During our project, we have the pleasure of having external experts and expertise in some of our meetings… Feel free to suggest, dive deep into the presented expert(ise), add and contribute.

Those are John Thackara, Dolly Daou, Danielle Wilde, and Elaine Ann.

This is my simple meal, I mostly eat rice and nourish myself with a lot of vegetables and spices like turmeric and garlic. Lately I substituted white rice with red and natural rice. Fried rice always reminds me of the first dish that I have ever cooked in my life.

As Prof. Heidkamp suggested for guest speakers

I am thinking about Danielle Wilde, I did a short term project “Food Climate Futures” with her last SS2019 at KISD.
E-mail: wilde@sdu.dk
 
and if it would be possible, Marije Vogelzang. I think she is one of the pioneer in Food Design.
 
or maybe easier to approach Bárbara Vitoriano, she was an exchange master student at KISD and a great designer. Recently she won the ecotrophelia (pt) award with her master thesis “OrangeBeeee” which she creates a sustainable non fat yogurt out of different food wastes.
The Main competition:

Heyhey!

Firstly I am totally fine with the meeting at 1pm instead of 2pm 🙂

I am Andrew, 29 years old and originally from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. At the moment I am in my 7th semester at KISD.

I love food, especially we have almost 200 countries in this world with different culinary cultures. Long time ago I wanted to enter culinary school, but I decided to go to Germany instead. As an Indonesian, food is really essential and diverse, we like to share our food and eating together, simple example: dinner every night with your family.

I grew up learning to cook from my mom, even I still remember what I cooked for the first time, fried rice, ever since this has always been my favourite dish, knowing there are a lot of varieties of this amazing comfort dish and cooking is always one of my main passion.

My expectations on this project are relative simple

  1. How to inform people how they actually get their food, what they put in their bodies and which impact do they get from these foods.
  2. Focusing on wastes and sustainability. What is the compensation when you waste your food. What else do you waste?
  3. Eating atmosphere, what kind of emotion a food can give you?

Maybe some other things that I can’t really think about right now.

As my expertises I am not really focusing on something really deep yet, I just started with 3d stuffs which is quite fun. I am focusing to be an integrated designer. I have done a couple of projects in different of expertises. I always interested in product design, interaction, fashion (shoes), experimental and conceptual design.

Maybe this project might help me to bridge the food design, which I always want to do.

I also cooked to raise some money for the victims of natural disaster in my country at the beginning of the year.
