| Food is a nutritious and delectable product of our reciprocal, sustaining relationship with the environment. It is also one of the oldest cultural expressions, rooted in hospitality and sharing. As the gastronome Brilliat-Savarin noted three centuries ago, “the discovery of a new dish does more for human happiness than the discovery of a new star.” | Food is a nutritious and delectable product of our reciprocal, sustaining relationship with the environment.

| Open Sauces will unfold in a sequence of experimental courses, matched with drinks, improvised music and esteemed guests. While savouring the foods, the guests will be engaged in table conversations, sharing experiences, recipes and ingredients needed to demystify cultural, environmental, technical and ethical aspects of contemporary food | Open Sauces will unfold in a sequence of experimental courses, matched with drinks, improvised music and esteemed guests. While savouring the foods, the guests will be engaged in table conversations, sharing experiences, recipes and ingredients needed to demystify cultural, environmental, technical and ethical aspects of contemporary food systems. From molecular gastronomy to fair trade, from permaculture to food-tracking, from open source to open sauces, we will blend seemingly unrelated elements of our food chain. In an era riddled with environmental and cultural anomalies, these transdisciplinary and trans-local connections will become one of the keys to our survival, as individuals, communities and species. |

| Although coding and cooking seem to propagate two completely different lifestyles (the first being concerned with digital bits, the other with physical atoms), Open Sauces will uncover their common roots; continual algoritmic processing of ingredients, fused together in a whole that becomes more than just the mere sum of its parts. Both activities benefit greatly from the sharing of expertise and experiences with peers around the globe. Both activities have large, rich industries behind them, often trying to monopolise the supply of code, recipes and ingredients, creating an illusion of scarcity for both programming and nourishment. Open Sauces takes an alternative route, based on an economy of abundance and cooperation, releasing the 'sauce code' far and wide. Cooks and coders of the world unite! | Although coding and cooking seem to propagate two completely different lifestyles (the first being concerned with digital bits, the other with physical atoms), Open Sauces will uncover their common roots; continual algoritmic processing of ingredients, fused together in a whole that becomes more than just the mere sum of its parts.
