First Tutorial

I found our group tutorial with Jon quite productive compared to the single tutorials we had last year. It was interesting to hear others ideas and processes as they go through out the year, and also to have their imput on my work. Thinking about the food project I am being pulled towards actually making cameras out of food instead of pursueing my initial interest in 'food and mood', this came apparent in the tutorial, and I am going to start with a pepper. I thought this would be an easier option to start with as it would hold it shape and hopefully won't take long to produce.

Some of the others in my group were interested in the aspect of food and habits/phobias. Some phobias brought up were fascinating, one girl could not eat any food on her plate if it was touching another type of food. I wonder what it would be like to feel that strong about something I would just take for granted (food touching food ona plate) How would it impact your everyday life? You wouldn't be able to order anything in a restaurant as generally food comes touching each other on the plate.
