Phones for Africa
I have been expanding on the edible phone work that was initially exhibited as part of Alchemy for a Global Economy. Seeing as we consume electronics at such a rapid pace in the developed world, my suggestion for a solution to e-waste and the global food crisis is that we make them edible.

That’s absolutely great! So interesting.
You will find soon your proposal in my blog dedicated to art and science (it is just in italian, unfortunatelly)… with the link to your blog and the description of your next course in Leiden!
many compliments from Italy

I seriously thought the phone in the first picture was made of a giant sun-dried tomato…
How about including “alphanumeric soup” on the menu? Probably the perfect breakfast for hungry young minds…

Actually, I already tried the soup idea (great minds…) though I wasn’t that happy with the way it turned out. I’ve been developing on the theme somewhat in the last month and I’m now putting together a book of ‘Fast Phones’ comprised of all fast food phone prototypes.
