The world´s taste

[The world´s taste]

Audience members will have different kinds of elements that they will use to feed several life size human figures made from transparent methacrylate, with an opening at the mouth. Letters placed on the tables will form words that define concepts and name the things that surround us and that we desire - food, ultimately, both physical and spiritual.


An alphabet would be placed inside the bodies together with signs corresponding to the world's cultures in neon letters that light up when activated by members of the public through interactive software.

 

Entering words into the figures – which would be equipped with sensors – would trigger one or more projections, in which the human figures come alive as if they were shadows of themselves expressing human flavours.

Audience members will be given a menu on which they can develop their taste preferences, appreciating the flavour of the thousands of news items and data that make up human knowledge and that we taste along with breakfast, lunch and dinner through different media (TV, radio, newspapers, on the street...)
Audience members will be able to express their choice through a microphone and listen to themselves moments later, creating a tempo between the chosen salivation and its assimilation, which will later trigger the projection of a shadowy kitchen. This would provide the setting for an imaginary world with screens that can be crossed. On the other side there would be large trays offering various kinds of flowers to represent the purity of the food, accompanied by letters that can be tasted by those present and recreated in an edible landscape (mountains of raw sugar....), a symbol of the union between the physical world and the world of ideas.
