Food design
This was a study on how to use your own body to produce food.
For fermenting vegetables you only need salt. Salt is also present in sweat.
The avarage person sweats 1/1.5 liters per hour
This sweat contains 0,38gr of salt per liter on avarage
To ferment 1kg of vegetables you need 15 gr of salt
Meaning that you need 40 hours worth of sweat to ferment 1 kg of vegetables (0.3×40=15,2).
The end result is a conceptual corset that is used to ferment vegetables with your own sweat.
