Plumpinon is a nut paste in which the artist employs the traditional “starvation nut” of her native New Mexico as a means to interrogate Nutriset’s patented humanitarian aid food, Plumpy’nut. Many who tasted the Plumpinon were pleasantly surprised to discover that an erudite and thought-provoking microbiopolitical intervention could taste so damn good.</blockquote><br /><br />Thanks for being there, eating, and writing, R.A.W.!<br /><br /><a href="http://ruralalchemy.wordpress.com/2011/11/05/multispecies-picnic-at-goddard-colleges-making-meaning-context-festival/">http://ruralalchemy.wordpress.com/2011/11/05/multispecies-picnic-at-goddard-colleges-making-meaning-context-festival/</a>Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-69623116900705483202011-03-30T18:53:00.000-07:002011-03-30T18:57:26.664-07:00reading listTwo recent recommendations from<a href="http://www.boingboing.net/"> Boing Boing</a> science blogger Maggie Koerth-Baker have caught my attention:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.magcloud.com/browse/Issue/176565">Paleofuture Magazine</a> has a new (print) issue out about "past visions of future food."<br /><br />And Sera Young has written <a href="http://www.cup.columbia.edu/book/978-0-231-14608-1/craving-earth/excerpt">Craving Earth: Understanding Pica--the Urge to Eat Clay, Starch, Ice, and Chalk</a>.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-50950729311912386102010-08-14T08:05:00.000-07:002010-08-14T08:11:18.060-07:00feeding objectsI don't know why I find this website compelling, but, it really, weirdly, is.

I'm not sure exactly when yet, but people attending the Society for Cultural Anthropology conference will be contributing a variety of edibles under the banner of a "multispecies meal." Look for my name and for <a href="http://ebenkirksey.blogspot.com/">Eben Kirksey</a>, organizer, & see the call for the posted last week.<br /><br />I'm not sure what I'll make yet. Liquid tamales were very popular at my tasting, but I feel obliged to work with piñon nuts, given our Santa Fe location. Piñon nuts won't be in season then, so I might have to bring some back-up nuts. (Trader Joes imports theirs and offers three or four possible origin locations, I forget where. Here in Australia they mostly come from China, and are almost as expensive as buying "native" seeds in New Mexico.) If anyone has a stash of piñon you're willing to contribute, please let me know. I'll probably end up flying via Albuquerque, as I have to leave directly for London after SCA.<br /><br />I wonder if Plumpy'nut is on the ground in Haiti. I hope so; mud cookie research indicated that Haitian kids could use some protein even before the earthquake.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-52353218945600104612010-01-16T20:08:00.000-08:002010-01-17T02:41:53.000-08:00Piling up…I spent a lot of time last spring contemplating the Haitian practice of making, selling, and eating cookies made from mud. Mud cookies make many things clear: Haiti has severe ecological and economic problems. Haitians find the process of harvesting, cultivating, and eating clay compelling enough to develop economies and labor systems to support the industry. I don't have enough knowledge of the situation in Haiti to assert that the mud cookie phenomenon might be related to Haiti's revolutionary tradition and their desire to remain outside of colonial systems, but, I pondered this and other questions. (For a thoughtful, if character-limited, analysis of Haiti's revolution and colonial politics/politics of slavery, see my colleague <a href="http://www.facebook.com/gregory.l.caldwell">Greg Caldwell's</a> recent facebook posts on the subject.) I hope that the current climate in Haiti after the earthquake (US control of their airport, apparent US control of the relief effort, Haiti's predicament regarding aid from many countries, few of which have active, viable revolutionary politics) will acquire &/or maintain an attitude of revolutionary solidarity. This is an impossible hope, I'm afraid, but...I hope anyway.<br /><br />Footage from Port au Prince reminds me again that my grandfather has died. A teacher in high school theorized the process of grieving for the many deaths experienced in any life as "a pile of bodies." Each new death adds to the pile, and it gets bigger, there, in the corner of my mind that takes care of death and dying. Haiti truly has piles. Grandparents and grandchildren and parents and children are piled up, buried alive, buried dead, buried anonymously, buried having been archived by digital cameras, their clothes having been snipped at for identification, or not. I am so grateful for my grandfather's grave, and even for the elaborate coffin and embalming process that I found unnecessary at the time. Why not keep a body safe, if you can?<br /><br />I gave my grandfather's eulogy. I didn't ask to or especially want to, but I was happy to. He did talk with me a lot, maybe because I'm comfortable with silences and could outlast his own comfort with silence. My cousin Gina offered her adaptation of <a href="http://glutenfreegourmand.blogspot.com/2009/10/recipe-for-my-grandmothers-marinara.html">our grandmother's spaghetti sauce</a>, one of Grandpa's favorites, over on her blog, <a href="http://glutenfreegourmand.blogspot.com/">Gluten-Free Gourmand</a>. And I've decided to post my <a href="http://starvationseeds.performative.com/Grandpa.pdf">eulogy here</a>. Grandpa was a huge part of my process with this project, and I'll remember him every time I return to it. He made many valiant efforts to be an internet user; we even got my grandma an e-mail address at the peak of this activity (her handle was oldladykelley). He would surely get a kick out of knowing he lives online, alongside recipes for spaghetti sauce and ruminations about death and eating mud.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-76901824650930886942010-01-11T20:34:00.000-08:002010-01-11T21:02:16.470-08:00Nil by Mouth by Roger EbertThis is an evocative, insightful piece about what it's like to use a stomach tube. <br /><br /><a href="http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2010/01/nil_by_mouth.html">http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2010/01/nil_by_mouth.html</a><br /><br />via thaths & mefi--thanks!Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-43495784681024679792010-01-10T17:33:00.000-08:002010-01-10T17:35:01.663-08:00Join Starvation Seeds in Santa Fe! Call below.The Multispecies Meal<br />@ the Society for Cultural Anthropology meetings in Santa Fe<br />May 7-8, 2010<br /><br />Artists, anthropologists, and significant others came together to<br />break bread at The Multispecies Salon, a special off-site event at the<br />2008 meetings of AAA in San Francisco. We shared food in an exercise<br />of being and becoming with Donna Haraway’s companion species. A<br />bestiary of agencies, kinds of relatings, come together in companion<br />species. “Companion comes from the Latin cum panis, ‘with bread,’” she<br />writes. During our meal we ate sourdough bread while Jake Metcalf told<br />us about a microbial culture that crossed the Oregon Trail and then<br />propagated itself on the internet. Acorn mush was prepared by Linda<br />Noel, a Native American poet who told us that she always left some<br />acorns behind “for the deer.”<br /><br />Artisanal cheeses from nearby Cowgirl Creamery featuring organic milk<br />and ambient as well as freeze-dried microbes from earth, air, and lab,<br />were provided by Heather Paxson. She told us about what she calls<br />“microbiopolitics”, the ways that human systems of ethics and<br />governance bear on the doings of microorganisms.<br /><br />Other items on our table involved small-scale relationships of mutual<br />care as well as mutual violence. Geographer Jake Kosek had just<br />collected fresh honey from his own beehive and was sporting a swollen<br />hand from a fresh sting. While we sipped dandelion root tea,<br />performance artist Caitlin Berrigan asked that we give blood to a<br />dandelion plant, providing much needed nutrients. The violence was<br />asymmetrical to be sure—bee stings and finger pricks are not<br />equivalent to the large-scale robbery of a hive’s resources, or the<br />uprooting of a plant. Still, this minor violence to human bodies was a<br />reminder that the entangled relations among companion species are<br />often fraught.<br /><br />Eating a meal in an art gallery turned mundane routine into an<br />opportunity for rumination and reflection. In trying to swallow the<br />products of multispecies labor relations and nested ecological<br />becomings, more than one gallery goer experienced indigestion. The<br />fermented smell of sourdough yeast lingered on the palate, mixing with<br />the bitter taste of dandelion tea and acorn mush.<br /><br />We will host another multispecies meal at the 2010 meetings of the<br />Society for Cultural Anthropology in Santa Fe. This will be a poster<br />session, of sorts, where people can informally talk about their work<br />and break bread together. People who are already participating in<br />formal paper presentations are welcome to submit their edible<br />organisms for consideration. Entrants should be prepared to bring<br />enough food to share with audience members.<br /><br />To be included in the session proposal, entrants should simply submit<br />a title for their project by Monday, January 11th, 2010 at noon EST.<br />Address all entries and queries to S. Eben Kirksey<br />(skirksey@pitt.edu). Late entrants will be considered up until the<br />SCA meetings in May.<br /><br />More information about the Multispecies Salon:<br />http://www.skyhighway.com/~multispecies/Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-86443711673922680352009-07-23T16:32:00.001-07:002009-07-23T16:32:41.084-07:00RPS photos<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/22485412@N05/sets/72157621674102871/">http://www.flickr.com/photos/22485412@N05/sets/72157621674102871/</a><br /><br />Photos of Starvation Seeds at RPS.<br /><br />Video coming someday! next month?Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-2726148804771460422009-07-23T15:52:00.001-07:002009-07-23T15:53:13.100-07:00Closing Reception @ RPS tomorrowIf you are in the mood for a much smaller, more relaxed closing event, please come to our closing reception tomorrow evening, 7-9 pm, RPS (address below).

Also, I'll be doing a tasting, so prepare yourself for liquid tamales and mud cookies.<br /><br />I just spent some time yesterday shooting video and stills of the show.

Nobody came to the workshop on purpose, but more people came today than came to the previous two combined. Tripod & video were working beautifully, and it was overcast, so the video isn't as blown out and overexposed looking.<br /><br />People sampled the tamales and the veggies, and i got the exact response i'd been hoping to elicit: "It's so weird to drink a tamale!" I also heard a lot of people productively imagining what it might be like to experience enteral feeding. I was surprised so many people even tried the food--I thought surely someone would require something sweet, but people were pretty happy with the savory stuff.<br /><br />I'm leaving the installation feeling really happy with how everything turned out!<br /><br />Next step, making a short video documenting the three workshops and the installation in general.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-8669709880670952642009-06-24T10:58:00.001-07:002009-06-24T11:03:01.456-07:00cookbook!At last, my cookbook is in press at Lulu! I've ordered 30 of them. Ambitious? I don't know yet. I'll be selling them at Rock Paper Scissors during that show (until July 29) and then on the website after that. I'm not sure what RPS's markup will be, but they are a worthy organization so I encourage you to buy it from them. The cookbook will be in inventory next week or as soon as I get it, and for sale shortly after our show opens.<br /><br />It's small but sweet: 40 tiny pages with recipes and stories excerpted from my thesis paper. It's a nice way to get some of the thesis paper out in the world, and a little more substantial than the recipe cards in the current installation.<br /><br />Speaking of which, after like 5 more shopping attempts (I'm not kidding!) I have not found a recipe box that is neither horribly ugly nor outrageously expensive. The expensive part wouldn't bother me as much if all that money didn't always end up buying some sort of awful martha stewart color scheme, etc etc. !!Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-80111125945954464382009-06-24T10:53:00.000-07:002009-06-24T10:57:53.319-07:00liquid foodToday's event involves either tasting or making liquid food. At last, I am moving my stores of liquid, bagged food out of my freezer! I'm hoping that because today is the last day of the show, there is more foot traffic than usual through the museum. I've noticed that people tend to use the sculpture garden as a chill out space with their kids--last time I was there people were breast feeding, letting their kids run around, etc., which can work well for these performance afternoons.<br /><br />& I'll have my tripod today! which will maybe help the exposure problems I've been having so far. I wish I had a clever way of putting up a tarp for shade, but I tried it last time and was met with epic failure. I hesitate to use sculptures as anchor points!<br /><br />btw, last workshop was not over when I posted that--several more people came out, & I think I got some decent video of one of them.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-148272581583504372009-06-19T14:19:00.001-07:002009-06-19T14:25:15.608-07:00today's workshopI guess I am actually liveblogging my workshop!<br /><br />Here I am squinting at my computer on the roof of the sculpture garden:<br /><br /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivYLs47nx-A_S8B1XJ7U7vwIO_SgWZW9Mb_BYGe2T3jg7JIdNk3uG-T51FqWc0QDqHBfIV7nXr5eurzOeSO2g2K7y6dj6zPzCdo2W-Y4KIj0fdwMdb5Jb1EAYUbeeJuF1sjxmTp9cokebF/s400/Photo+164.jpg" border="0"><br /><br />On the roof today, Kathleen and Nada brought friends to sample bentonite clay in its wet, drinkable form, and in its yummy, oatmeal cookie form.

Nada and Kathleen both sampled a finger's worth. <br /><br />The bad news is, my camera works brilliantly indoors but horrible outdoors--my video footage is very washed out. <br /><br />The good news is, lots of pictures!<br /><br />After Nada and Kathleen left, I talked with a few visitors to the museum, a mother and daughter pair, and Lynn, the woman who waters and gardens up here.<br /><br />30 minutes left, but I have a feeling I'm done for the day.<br /><br />I'm sitting where the mud cookies used to be, then I'll move the dirt tasting stuff into the greenhouse before I leave.Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100392096795239015.post-78930351415190758812009-06-18T08:06:00.000-07:002009-06-18T13:44:58.918-07:00workshop tomorrow: eating dirtTomorrow, June 19, I'll have a bunch of clay-based food and drink available to taste and experience. Sorry about my earlier, mistaken post--I had my schedule mixed up! Liquid food is next week, stay tuned. I'll be outside in the sculpture garden from 1-3. <br /><br />Since I last posted, I officially received my Ph.D and less officially received my MFA. Here I am, the lone person standing in the Ph.D seating area to receive my MFA:<br /><br /><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5g4eUVuZ7QxU9wUUSqrh-Li7x3yRyBfF0eJcBwZL4JE0dCWExMkt4_jtBB-P4gEEiorkT21iXeCZC7A_xRe8DZAh6PZ16_5qYbDx4ok34FCwVqHbPOOJMjvPBUOMpul_cakTTcJtExAZH/s400/mfa.jpg" border="0">Lindsay Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17696439694820339402noreply@blogger.com0
