The FoodPrint Project is running a series of podcasts that explore food, touching on the social, political, artistic and economic forces that shape the way we eat.
The free afternoon program gathers panels of designers, policy-makers, flavor scientists, culinary historians and food retailers for wide-ranging discussions of New York’s food systems, past and present, and thoughts on opportunities to transform our edible landscape through technology, architecture, legislation and education. One panel took guests behind the scenes of street food, chronicling interesting details from where street vendors park carts at night to the infrastructure of soup kitchens. In another discussion, Foodprint Project co-founder Sarah Rich led a conversation about the ways in which the edible landscape of New York City reflects the city’s rich history of immigration, expansion, social change, technical innovation and even food scandals. Panelists discuss everything from the evolution of menu descriptions to the gradual disappearance of food production from the city.
Check out the podcasts from New York City by visiting Columbia’s GSAPP Wood Lectures Spring 2010 catalog on iTunes U. Go to Columbia University > Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation > GSAPP Spring 2010 > StudioX 2010. Future Foodprint events are planned in other major cities.—Denise Shoukas
