Presentation (name/pronouns/screenprinting/icebreaker)

Hormonobotanik?

dot Wiki? slash What will we be doing today?

11h30 post-it recipes sharing

Everyone write a recipe from memory, on a post-it, in 5min

We mix them, and do a round where you have to decrypt someone else recipe

They add some context about their recipe

We put all post-it on a table/wall and we can highlight some recurring or diverging patterns

12h web2screenpint as collective material recipe!

What's web2print?

What's screenprinting?

Making 3 groups (5 people max per group to keep some intimacy)

12h30 group recipes to print recipes

We suggest reading our list of questions (you can find later), taking a bit of time to present what you bring

But don't loose track of time and start putting your hands in the ingredients as soon as possible (export .pdf, cut with scissors, photocopy our post-it, draw on top, etc)

We propose the A4 folded in 8 and cut one page fanzine format

13h30, lunch break!

Soup :) (vegan)

Flo*Souad will go flashing the stencil at Mona, whoever wants to come can go

14h30 screenprinting demo

Flo*Souad & Luna show through 2 parallele print station: the gestures, the inks & papers, the crafts

15h let's print!

Every group become autonomous to print, sharing the 2 print station

Don't forget you can keep cooking during this part: mask section, change ink, change paper

Keep some time to cut and fold

16h30 sharing what we did

"What do you eat when you need comfort?"

Many ideas!

Hormonobotanik?

• not big pharma, but recipe as methodology to quesiton gender (and other stuff)

dot Wiki?

What's a wiki?

• wikipedia but many wiki
• example of how do we arrange our space
• from ingredient to translation to recipe to workshop to external, space with many doors and always changing!

What will we be doing today?

• timeline reading

Web2print?

• "à la mano"
• material - many recipe instead of one fixed template conditionnned by tools
• social practice
• figuring out together

show the graph!

Screenprinting?

• flash
• ...

The things we use!

Ingredients to print

• Our post-it from the morning exercise, zoom in them, overlay them, cut them, duplicate them!
• Things you brought! Bite-sized recipes, inspiring quotes?
• Explore hormonobotanik.wiki, by phytohormonal ingredients? or by type of documents? export as .pdf or even screenshot them!
• Go to the External Ressources page, or flip through the books we brought for things to scan or redraw.

Questions that feeds us

• How can recipe become a methodology to question gender? Not only as a result to ingest, but as a process that ask intimate & situated transformative participation from us?
• What's our relationship to disgusting things: how bodies can be seen as disgusting, how we can nurture curiosity and wonder to disgusting textures or feelings in cooking?
• How do we translate and embed knowledge and stories inside of recipe, they become vessel for things and their shape can be many: litterary tutorial, visual representation, oral telling, gestural witnessing; on a post-it note, on a wiki, in a message to a friend, at the end of a diner, through a drawing, etc.

Ce que l'on demande aux personnes d'amener

• une recette importante pour vous, or anything that is a recipe for you
• it's like you bring an ingredient, we need to be able to cook it together, it shouldn't be too big, a "bitesize something"
• it could be une photo or a even memory

Si vous aimez travailler sur votre propre ordi bring it, since we will be looking at a wiki (website). Mais pas d'obligation, une grande partie du workshop sera collectif.
