SOURCED is a public research project by Dr. Anna Sulan Masing and Chloe-Rose Crabtree, which aims at developing lines of inquiry into our relationships with food and drink. SOURCED investigates the way ingredients are sourced to push the food and drinks industry towards change.
For their second birthday celebration in September 2022, they held the event in collaboration with Food Wave at e5 Bakehouse with workshops, talks and food and drink celebrating all things ROT. They had dedicated a whole season on it and discussed rot from various angles: the science behind it, the organisms that thrive on it, the communities (microbial and human) that develop from it. They wanted to create their first ever zine which has rot articles with recipes in it to give away for free at the event, so I had the pleasure of materialising it. Fun fact: the cover photos are taken from my own compost bins with the worms working hard to break down food waste and dead leaves from my garden. Thanks to Anna, Chloe, Food Wave and What the Fork for this amazing opportunity where the content was so rich and interesting.
