The Synesthetic Dinner is created in collaboration with a DJ and a visual artist. During the courses the guests are requested to put on their headphones while the DJ will play live music and the room and tabletop will come to life by light projections designed to compliment the dishes that are being served. The Synesthetic dinner is a 5 course dinner which takes you on a magnificent taste journey.
Research
We took inspiration from the recent discoveries in the gastrophysica, were we consider the color of the food on the plate and the color of the lights by projecting a flowing visual art piece on the table as well as the sounds that the guest would hear by giving them headphones that would connect them to a live DJ that would freestyle according to the flavors in the dishes. This experience simultaneously heightens the taste experience by stimulating multiple senses at the same time, as well as it creates a mindfulness while eating and therefore enhancing a higher level of concentration on the food.
