EAT SHIT
Can you eat your own Poo?
Can you use it as a material?
How is poo reflecting your state of being?
There is currently a lot of interest in our digestion system, with numerous books about our intestines and bacteria. It’s rather remarkable though, that we are hardly aware of our own shit.
During this talk we will explore how the current food culture (foodism) can be inspired by pooism with:
