Created by Chong Boon Pok, Imagining Food Experience is an experimental art event organised and conceptualized in responds to the 1st International Symposium of Food Experience Design that examines the “emerging discipline of Food Experience Design”. The event seeks to connect two key features from the symposium: firstly, the manifestation of food designed for our eating experience.
Secondly, a speaker panel and attendees from different nationalities and diverse cultural background that are interested in the development of food.

In advance to the symposium, the registered attendees were asked: ‘What is the food ingredient that you think most represents yourself and/or your culture?’ Using recipe from my own culture, creation and experience, a selection of the suggested food ingredients, as the result of the question,
are cooked into a few experimental dishes to serve as the conference’s lunch. A long communal table is custom made for the attendees to enjoy their lunch together and exchange conversation.
Apart from advance food design using modern technology, cultural crossover in food is becoming a prominent feature in contemporary everyday life.

Imagining Food Experience engages the idea of globalization and cultural plurality in food, cooking and eating. The piece observes, blends and plays with food ingredients and recipes from different countries
and cultures to create new forms. It provides an opportunity for the dinners to expand their conversation about this environment. The piece also embraces the spirit of sharing and exchanging through engaging people to share a meal by sitting together in a communal table. It also allows them to enter and expand work of art by tasting it and taking it away to share with others.
