Thought

Cooking practices have been appropriated and taken over by tech culture. 
Food workshop, 'food hacking' have found their way into hackerspaces around the world. 
What is gained and what is lost by this hijacking? Why has software culture adopted terms such as 'cookbook', 'recipe', 'kitchen' into its practices of writing, 
collecting and experimenting with software?       
How can open-source free software culture practices be adopted and adapted to food culture? Is cooking an elitist practice?

Foodcritic is a linter and code standard enforcer for Chef cookbooks.
Foodcritic is a static analysis tool, meaning that it examines the code without executing it. 
Foodcritic can find a wide range of issues, including formatting, deviation from best practices, and subtle bugs.

Another thought

How can we reflect on cooking as an anti-capitalist action? Our time has been carefully structured so that we can spend 
as much time as possible being productive, as in producing capital and goods.        
Cooking is considered extra labour that we do not need to perform. Corporations have made it clear that cooking 
is something that they can provide, so that we can be simply consumers. 
Our free time should only be spend on leisure activities/entertainment, otherwise known as even more consumption.

Imagining food futures workshop

On the 25th of October, I briefly took part in a workshop organized by Creative Code Utrecht, hosted by Marketa Dolejsova, in a restaurant/meeting room space called The Green House. due to personal issues, I was only able to participate for the initial presentations. However, I got a good sense of what the participants backgrounds and interest were. My notes are here. One thing that struck me was the range of participants this kind of workshop attracted, including the speakers who did small presentations at the beginning. Being a food-related workshop, ran by someone who dedicated her PhD to the concept of designing future food scenarios using speculative design as a method.
