Digesting Food Studies—Episode 113: Eating and Social Isolation
https://rss.com/podcasts/digesting-food-studies/2422624/

Do you eat alone, or with others? Is it by choice, or are your commensality options dictated by your social condition, your domestic situation, your access to shared space? https://doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v4i2.220

Eating is both a unifier and divider in our food cultures, and the spaces in which we do it can both support connection-making and reinforce isolation. This episode focuses on an audio artwork by Mélanie Binette—a sound installation in a Montréal community restaurant called “Invité.e.s Invisible.s”—intended to help solo eaters connect.

Plus, Alexia Moyer shares two other soundscapes and their implications for sociability, while Samphe Ballamingie responds poetically to Mélanie’s artistic intervention.

Heading to our weekly potluck dinner with Fawna. I'm bringing chard ohitashi and miso shiru I made from scratch (the dashi, not the miso itself). Fawna made cauliflower and zucchini pasta. Jay made lentil soup. Tonight our farmer friend Dan and his wife Sonya will be there for the first time, with a pot roast. Nice to see our learning-action circle and weekly potluck worlds collide. Food bringing us together.
