Concept

The project that has been the focus of the past year is based on a large collection of material, from text, to images, to videos. In terms of work produced, it's composed of a written essay which follows the development of the meal replacement phenomenon and puts it in a cultural, socio-economic context, a video essay which focuses on meal replacements as alleged solutions to problems, a website which documents the project, and a multi-sensory installation.

The archive of the project contains a number of material in various media, such as audio files, spreadsheets and written diaries, transcriptions, etc. The connections between all these pieces is crucial in having a broad outlook on the topic, and understanding all the implications that come with a seemingly inconspicuous range of products. This is why I wanted a publishing platform which can highlight all these connections through hyperlinks.

Hosting

Continuing with the concept of a bedroom-based project, the website is self-hosted on the server running from a RaspberryPi in my own house.
