Food Project (6)

So we used the peels of the fruits and vegetables from Publix and created clothing. We were thinking of skin with consumer goods which juxtaposed with leather and animal materials to make clothes. Next to the skin created shirt, we displayed the fruits and veggies that were peeled in order to make the clothes. We wanted to show the waste in order to create the clothes. 

Thinking of critique, some people had really good ideas of furthering this idea. With the idea of people using every part of the animal in certain cultures, we could have used every single part of the waste to create other goods.

Food project — Critique

EAT YOUR WORDS

For this project, I used edible paper and ink to write down some of the most offensive tweets and quotes of celebrities today.
Some, while not offensive to everyone in general, were still received with aggressive/negative responses by the FANDOM of whomever that actor/singer was offending.
In any case, it's all a matter of public response.

To find these, I looked for people's rankings of the most offensive tweets online, and found quite a few.
Here's 18 of the most shocking/offensive or just idiotic tweets

They said what? Celebrities' most offensive comments

With social media, the tendency to thoughtlessly post our opinions about our own personal lives, or any recent event that might've taken place has gotten more than one celebrity in trouble. Not that the rest of the population don't make their share of offensive, stupid, or just plain offensively stupid comments out there, but celebrities, by nature of being on the spotlight, get much more immediate—oftentimes aggressively irate—feedback from the people that follow them on, say, Twitter,

This purpose of this project was to write these words down on a medium that is literally consumable, but also to imply that these are instances in which these celebrities probably wish (or should wish) they could have eaten their words. Not only that, it's also a commentary about how we as their audience and sometimes-followers, whether offended or not by their words, eat them up all the same, in our own way.

Essentially, however offensive the word vomit that these stars might type out, it is the fans and followers that gobble it up and make it go viral, as they say.

Fame, as always, is a two way street.

And, whereas out generation is perhaps all too accustomed to informing the world at large of our daily thoughts and experiences—we might also benefit from some careful consideration before actually posting the first thing that comes to mind onto a public server.

Unlike the words on this wafer paper, the ones you post on the internet are impossible to take back.

Plus: The paper and ink also proved to be a rather easy and fun way to make temporary tongue tattoos
