Aerobanquets RMX : The World’s First Mixed Reality, Immersive Gastronomy Experience

Virtual reality engages our senses of sight and sound. But what about taste and smell? If you could eat art and music… what would it taste like? On this episode of Tech Bites, host Jennifer Leuzzi talks with artist Mattia Casalegno and Kathleen Forde, senior curator of Superblue, about Aerobanquets RMX, the world’s first mixed reality, immersive gastronomy experience. Inspired by the Futurist Cookbook, the (in)famous Italian compendium of surreal recipes and fantastical dinners published in 1932, the experience takes participants on a multi-sensory journey that combines virtual reality, fantasy, and food with a menu created by award-winning chef Chintan Pandya. Aerobanquets RMX is presented by Superblue and Meta Open Arts as a special activation during Miami Art Week, from November 28 to December 4, 2022. It is produced by Flavor Five Studio.Photo Courtesy of Aerobanquets RMX.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.
