web site of the project Food Futuring Tours, a participatory experience which aims at re-imagining food in the XXI century, collecting ideas, visions and imaginaries about the future of food and food of the future, and the possible social - inclusive of ethical and cultural aspects - and environmental impacts of them coming from the great Universal Exposition 2015 in Milan, entirely dedicated to the theme. For six months hundreds of Countries around the world will showcase in Expo technologies, innovation, culture, traditions, around the theme of food. Food Futuring Tours consists of 5 semi-guided walking tours with experts of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) and of the Joint Research (JRC) of the European Commission, through the halls of EXPO2015, during which participants photographing (using smart phones or digital cameras) or drawing or with any other visual means of recording will tell what captures their attention with regards to the issues of the participatory workshop. The focus of the "futuring" deliberation will be defined by the participants at the end of each workshop. The Food Futuring Tours is an activity of public engagement based on an "experiential" mode of engaging, noticing and anticipating the future first explored By Cynthia Selin, Sarah Davies, Gretchen Gano and Ângela Guimarães Pereira in Lisbon through a project called Finding Futures (Selin et al. 2013). This project explored innovative ways of deliberating the future of cities through an emphasis on embodied spatio-visual engagement with urban landscapes. The project has since evolved in other directions, namely The Futurescape City Tours and it has been mainly centred on cities. In this context the mode will be explored on the topic of food. The workshop will also use participative methodologies for introducing the debate on science and technology widely explored by CNR research group.
sito web del progetto Futuring Food Tours (FFT), ciclo di laboratori partecipati che mira a raccogliere idee, visioni e scenari sul cibo del futuro e sul futuro del cibo, sui possibili impatti sociali, etici, culturali e ambientali a partire dalla grande esposizione universale Expo2015 di Milano, in cui per 6 mesi centinaia di paesi da tutto il mondo metteranno in mostra le tecnologie, l'innovazione, la cultura, le tradizioni, intorno al tema del cibo. Il progetto di consultazione pubblica FFT è articolato in 5 percorsi (tour) semi-guidati da esperti del Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR) e del Centro comune di ricerca (CCR) della Commissione Europea, attraverso i padiglioni di Expo2015 della durata di una giornata ciascuno (per un totale di circa 4 ore). Durante questi tour, i partecipanti, ispirati da ciò che vedono in esposizione, raccolgono le proprie suggestioni, le sistemano, infine le discutono collettivamente per arrivare a formulare possibili scenari futuri. FFT mira a sperimentare un coinvolgimento pubblico su temi di scienza e tecnologia usando una modalità "esperienziale" di partecipazione collettiva già sperimentata da Cynthia Selin, Sarah Davies, Gretchen Gano ed Ângela Guimarães Pereira a Lisbona nel corso di un progetto chiamato Finding Futures (Selin et al. 2013). Il progetto aveva come obiettivo di esplorare modalità innovative di partecipazione ai processi decisionali ai fini di anticipare scenari futuri sui paesaggi urbani, con un approccio sensoriale di tipo spazio-visivo. Il progetto si è poi evoluto in altre direzioni, portando ai Futurescape City Tours ancora centrato sulle città. In questo contesto si cerca di sperimentarlo su uno scenario diverso, legato al tema dell'alimentazione, oggetto appunto dell'Expo2015. Il laboratorio si avvarrà anche di metodologie di partecipazione al dibattito su scienza e tecnologia ampiamente sperimentate dal gruppo di ricerca del CNR
