Noise n food

Wow I read an article the other day that studied the science of how sound effects the tastes of food. Just think of it!!! It seems this study had folks bite a potato chip,recorded it then altered the sound of the chip. They made some chips sound louder and some softer. The people that heard their chip louder said the chip tasted good. The chips that were softer tasted just ok. As a sound artist and nutrition student I find this study very interesting. I knew that when people were angry that eating something crunchy help them deal with the anger. I am a victim of eating when I am upset or depressed. Now, I know that the sound can alter the taste of food. So the next time you get pissed off eat something fresh and crunchy it's taste good and you 'll feel better. For more read Sound and Taste

Maybe I will do sound stuff for 10 minutes that would work. We'll see how it goes.

With her guidance and support all of us had tasks to do.  The press preview was from 4-5pm and we finished setting up and cleaning just before the press arrived The Pop Up Shop had items made by the artists. I didn't bring or make anything for the shop , but some of the artist did and the shop looked great with jewelry, posters, postcard, comics, as well as mini paintings and textile work. Just outside the Pop Up Shop was the table a...
