Shrinking Man : Etre plus petit c'est aussi pouvoir manger plus

The Incredible Shrinking Man, un projet de Arne Hendriks

L'idée est simple, réduire la taille normale de l'espèce humaine au lieu d'essayer en vain d'élargir les ressources. Plus on est petit, moins on a besoin de consommer de l'energie, moins on a besoin de nourriture.
En mesurant 50cm de haut, on pourrait se faire un large banquet avec un seul poulet roti.

NIAGARA FALLS & CRANBERRY LEAVES is a drink made with natural water harvested by Davide Balula on the site of Niagara Falls in Canada, right before the water falls. After being cautiously filtered and purified, the "cocktail" has been slightly aromatized with natural diuretic elements.

Niagara Falls and Cranberry Leaves is also a visual musical score where musicians are asked to interpret the different steps of the swallowing process, an imaginary inner travel of the liquid.
