We had the chance to present our open-source incubator that promotes fermented food and collaboration with natural processes at fab16montreal, the international Fab Labs conference!

This summer, makery.info (media for labs) came to interview us in our studio in Barcelona about our practice and projects. The transcript is now online on their website. Check it out to better understand what we do :-)

Thanks Maya & Ewen, come back anytime for more “fermented discussions” 🌻

We are Sriracha Lovers, we put it on almost everything. And even more on tempeh! Check out our sriracha recipe, try it at home and give us your review. Hope it’ll be hot as hell! 👹

This morning we had the chance to present our open-source incubator at the Fab16, the worldwide event of the Fablab network! We gave a talk, or theory workshop as they call it, for the first time and we really enjoyed doing it.

We covered topics such as:

• fermentation as a process of partnering with microorganisms
• plant-based proteins as an effective solution for reducing greenhouse gas emissions
• how to make tempeh
• why we make open source tools
• how to leverage the principles of distributed design and decentralised manufacturing

Thank you all for coming and we hope to share the recording soon for those interested who missed it :-)

FAB16 brings together members of the international Fab Lab network, as well as government officials, academic researchers, and experts in the field of digital fabrication, to present, envision, discuss, and build community around digital fabrication, technology, and innovation. This year, FAB16 and Fab City Summit will all be hosted online, with FAB16 Hubs creating events for their communities to join the online programming and local programming of their own.

Back to the post office today, but this time bound for Amsterdam.

Indeed, in the context of the Hyper Global / Hyper Local exchange programme, we are teaming up with Valentina from My Vegan Fam to improve our tempeh moulds.

Valentina is a professional tempeh maker based in Amsterdam. She has a burning passion for tempeh and that pushes her to get out and spread the love for this fantastic food. She is the one who gave us her tempeh recipe when we were in Amsterdam two years ago.

She will test our moulds and give us feedback, we will then co-design the next version and finally, we will support her to 3D print the new version in a local makerspace in order to test the distributed design and decentralised fabrication side of the project. We’ll keep you posted!
