<br>How do we encounter the world when we cook and eat? From an STS 
<br>perspective, cooking and eating are two of the most direct ways of 
<br>interacting with the world, and one in which, we constantly re-negotiate 
<br>the socio-technical world.
<br>
<br>In this workshop we will do STS by cooking a lunch. Each workshop 
<br>participant will need to bring two edible ingredients that represent an 
<br>important element of interacting with the world for her. We will conduct 
<br>a series of exercises to learn about these ingredients, how to cook 
<br>them, and learn what they do to our bodies. We will then conduct another 
<br>series of exercises to consider the ways we want to create a meal from 
<br>these ingredients: We will think through how they politically and 
<br>gustatorily sit together, what kinds of transformations we want them to 
<br>undergo and what kind of situation (religious, political, technical) to 
<br>create to eat the meal. Finally, we will also think through the waste we 
<br>produce with our lunch and what to do with it and seek to introduce it 
<br>into the meal.
