OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
While gastrophysics, the new science of eating, has primarily been explored in the context of fine dining, there are numerous insights and understandings that can be applied to help nudge us all toward a more sustainable food future, both for ourselves and the planet we inhabit. In this talk, I want to highlight some of the latest findings concerning how to sense-hack our experience of a variety of sustainable foods from insects to jellyfish and leafy greens. I will also take a look at the future of technology at the dining table – considering what role digital technologies may play in our food future, be it augmented reality, sonic seasoning, or dining with a variety of digital companions.
