At the Edible Makerspace we explore the viability of thinking critically through food prototypes within the food – agricultural system in the Southeast Asian context. This is carried out in the setting of a makerspace based in Singapore, targeted at local and regional grassroots communities engaged in agricultural and food livelihoods, but also to curious individuals keen to explore alternative ideas via food as a medium. At the heart of the makerspace lies tinkering; making machines to explore the range of flavours, to studying the environment, and deconstruct food sources. It will has a strong emphasis on the DIY Bio hacker approach to food futures.
