Digital Gastronomy is a culinary vision that seeks to offer hybrid solutions. They are hybrid in that they combine traditional cooking with new computational abilities. Researcher Amit Zoran, part of the Digital Gastronomy project, told us how his research in the Hybrid Lab at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem focuses on deploying digital fabrication instruments in traditional kitchens to create these hybrid recipes. We had the opportunity to ask him a few questions to learn more about his vision and how & where he sees this technology being adopted.
