As part of a museums practicum course in 2015, I participated as a performer in The Contemporary’s ‘GhostFood’ project–a performance piece that explored climate change through endangered foods.
The GhostFood food truck travelled through Baltimore and Johns Hopkins University campus, serving ‘post-extinction’ flavors. In essence, the essence of peanuts, chocolate, and cod were paired with foods (chocolate milk, PB&J, fish and chips) that should but don’t include them.
I was a primary food server. Often, the face of the truck.
I also ran the GhostFood twitter, working with the artist, Mariam Simun, to produce content that evoked a distant, but familiar future.
Our GhostFood servers would be happy to assist you in your flavor experience. pic.twitter.com/OY9cutgR2A
