Good evening!
Here is the first go at articulating what our group is all about:
Sustainability and Transitions
Our group’s topic is Sustainability and
Transitions. Specifically, we have been
discussing sustainability of the arts, as well as more sustainable practices in
food preparation and waste management. We
have interpreted the transitions portion of our focus in terms of transitioning
from unsustainable practices to more sustainable practices through processes
such as reskilling. Of particular
interest to us has been the nature of transactions—in particular, finding ways
to engage people in exchanges that go beyond the mechanics of mere financial
transactions. We are planning to engage
participants in sampling simple foods and making interactive on-site art objects
at two local farmer’s markets in the coming weeks.
