Future proof|Morality Calculus Tasting Event

Alongside the display of the real lab-baked hybrid bread, an event will be held by Yuning Chen to provide a theatrical tasting experience for the participants to explore their personal morality calculus. The experience will involve eating food fermented by fictional hybrid organisms analogous to the ones involved in the bread making experiments. Through ordering, tasting and thinking through food with fellow participants, the audience is invited to calculate the incalculable – the morality of genetic parts from different living beings, and to reflect on the choices they’ve made during the process.

Presented by Summerhall, ASCUS Art & Science and Design Informatics and The Centre for Engineering Biology, in partnership with Edinburgh Futures Institute
