X-Feast:Future Food Now

Experimental Multisensory Culinary Experience

 

X-Feast is a series of experimental activities and events initiated by the ArcheX team in China. Its theme includes food, design, art and innovation. It brings not only the experience of the food but also the feast of thoughts.

 

2050, it is a time node full of infinite reverie, and it is a future that is not far away. And what are we talking about when we talk about future food - The population is exploding, the land is unbearable, the resources are unevenly distributed, the ecology is extremely deteriorating, and the global food shortage. People seem to be more keen on the discussion of the dystopian world and these very catastrophic discussions for the future, are the alerts to the current survival signals.

Assuming that all human beings will face a future that is not entirely optimistic, what can we do? What kind of efforts should we take for making better food choices? At our latest X- Feast event, an “adventurer” who came back from the Uncharted Forest 33 years later brought us a visionary concept - “Future Food Now” - reflecting the present into the future, and make influences by now before the future comes. 

"Future Food Now" is the revelation from the last piece of pure land to humankind. Habitants in the forest share an advanced view of food: they are more willing to choose a large number of widely distributed and easily accessible ingredients; take eco-friendliness and sustainability as a prerequisite; as well as ensure rich and balanced nutritional needs.

Uncharted Forest means "a forest that has not been marked on the map." it is a metaphor for the ideal world of the future. The advanced diet ecology and survival wisdom are showing us: perhaps we should just give the future a thought from now on, and make appropriate changes at the moment, to break our limited vision, and for preventing us from those possible crises.
