What is Next Nature?

With our attempts to cultivate nature, humankind causes the rising of a next nature, which is wild and unpredictable as ever. Wild systems, genetic surprises, autonomous machinery and splendidly beautiful black flowers. Nature changes along with us.

Info Toaster

Toasted bread as an information display device (originally developed in 2001 but somehow still intruiging): a toaster that parses meteorological information from the web & then browns bread with an image of what weather to expect, readable & consumable on the way to work. the image is burned on to the bread by one of 3 stencils, representing sunny, cloudy or rainy conditions.

Eventually, the stencils could become more sophisticated, to display detailed weather maps, short text messages & even advertisements on to bread.

  1. Of course this thing is a bit of a gadget, but I don’t understand why there aren’t infofood companies and research institutions yet. I find the idea to connect ‘information’ with ‘food’ intruiging and promissing.

    It might be intruiging, yet I think I prefer the bread just around that burned raincloud better. :P
