Foods and the 1.5 Degree Challenge!

Dear All,

Just came across a webpage/report titled “The 1.5 degree Challenge” by Mckinsey.

There are proposed actions and changes that mankind will need to urgently take/make to enable us to stop global warming. The 1st item that the report has listed is FOOD related. If you have time can go to the web link and review this…………

Absence today

Dear all, hello Hendrik, Michael, Estelle from KISD, we missed you today and as we just meet once a week joining is crucial to meet with your team – and with us to get the latest news and feedback. Please check with your teammates – and make sure that in each meeting there is one member that can speak for the team.

We suggest that all teams find their individual date before next Tuesday to prepare the work to be shared in the intermediate presentation next Tuesday.

Meet on THU

Dear all, sorry that we didn´t make the full tour today in the breakout rooms. The good news is: Team 6 and 7 have some more time to proceed. Benny and I will meet you this THU at 1300 UTC (1 hour later than usual). After talking to Team 6 and 7 we are happy to give some more feedback if necessary – but I think you had quite a lot of input you have to digest and transform.

Convivial gathering

After today´s talk and our following discussions in the rooms with the teams we assume you need to proceed now a bit and expose yourself to practise and deeper investigate your topics on the microlevel by DOING it.

As you might have noticed, we schedule a few “convivial gatherings” that should be convened by the students. It should give you the opportunity to meet and do sth together, sharing an activity, practice something together, prepare a meal, or proceed to work on your topics. This week, only Benny might join as I am hosting a session of Cumulus until 1500 Cologne / 2200 HK so I might join later. Find your way, find your style – next week we will meet again for the second gathering.

As my zoom will be used for my other activity, please use the following coordinates in zoom on Thursday :

https://th-koeln.zoom.us/j/81703847837

Meeting-ID: 817 0384 7837
Code: 060514

Looking forward to meet you latest on Tuesday – and always earlier if necessary. Good to see how our miro board is growing…guess you start to get more familiar with it…

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.

Philipp Heidkamp September 29, 2020 1:22 pm *

So good to see all of you sharing…

… this is really exciting to see which fantastic team will come together. Sorry that I was not able to respond to the last posts; I am quite busy the next days but I will catch up. Of course, all feel free to comment on others! We are here to share and learn from each other…and together.

This is also a short reminder fro the KISD students that the deadline is tomorrow for introducing yourself, on Thursday I will close the team or activate the waiting list – just to be fair.

And, as you all agreed, we will change our meeting time to 1300 CET (1200 UTC).

Expertise: Danielle Wilde

Danielle is Associate Professor of Embodied Design at the University of Southern Denmark, Kolding (SDU). Her research aims to understand how designing with, for and through the full sensorial richness of the human body might transform how design and living unfold in a more-than-human world, positing human embodiment, the climate crisis, and the 6th mass extinction as interdependent material issues.

Food is personally, socially, politically, and ecologically potent, making it an important vector through which to reimagine and redesign everyday interactions. In recent years, my research has taken a turn towards food as the vector through which to conduct diverse inquiries. This turn builds on professional culinary experience from my life before becoming a researcher and an ongoing, passionate interest in food as an aesthetically sophisticated, sensorially rich social glue. It extends my work in embodied design and commitment to more sustainable ways of approaching designing, designing research and living.

See http://www.daniellewilde.com

Danielle conducted an interesting workshop (so many of them, of course, but this one has many links to our work): Handmaking food ideals Crafting the design of future food-related technologies. see https://handmakingfood.wordpress.com/

Expertise: John Thackara: where social and ecological systems meet design

John Thackara is influencing design since decades. John Thackara is a writer, advisor and event producer. He curated the celebrated Doors of Perception conference for 20 years – first in Amsterdam, later across India – and was commissioner of the UK social innovation biennial Dott 07 and the French design biennial City Eco Lab. With a focus on focus on social, ecological and relational design, Thackara has curated place-based xskool workshops in 20 countries. He studied philosophy before working for ten years as a book publisher and magazine editor. He was the first director (1993—99) of the Netherlands Design Institute. He is a senior fellow at the Royal College of Art, and visiting professor at School of Visual Arts in New York and at Pontio Innovation in Wales. His most recent book – How To Thrive In the Next Economy: Designing Tomorrow’s World Today – has just been published in China where, since 2019, he is a visiting professor at Tongji University with a focus on urban-rural reconnection.

He curated an excellent exhibition in China last year about reconnecting to the rural (see his paper about Bioregioning: Pathways to Urban-Rural Reconnection here).

In addition, John co-leads the Back to the Land Summer School that our partner school Konstfack runs every tow years. This experience – also in conducting it this year fully online – is highly relevant. See his excellent reading list here.

Highly valuable in general is a look at his contributions and talks at resilience.

We are happy to have John with us in one of our seminar sessions!

Welcome to all of you

As of today, we know who will participate, We have a team of 14 students from Cologne and 17 students from Hongkong. If you want you can start to briefly introduce yourself here either by some words or, even better, a short video clip telling us a bit about you, why you are in particular interested in this project if you have specific expertise or experience you can bring in…just as a starting point.

In the meantime (still, some time to go) I am working with Benny Leong from PolyU HK on the schedule and more detailed outline of this project. So more information will come in October…

PS: I am terribly sorry for the places we could not accept from the waiting list (or the ones who just subscribed). You are welcome to follow our project, but with around 30 students we really have the maximum for this exciting intercultural and international collaboration. And in case you are having a place and decide to NOT jin please let me know as soon as possible…your fellow students will be happy to know…
