  • What Does a Baobab Sound and Taste Like: Building a Collaborative Catalog of Tastes and Sounds

Session on-the-go

From Estrela House Garden Library comes a small outdoor lab that includes samples from a wood archive. Let’s generate together the first catalog of tastes and sounds for the Lisbon Libraries. Combining root and leaf tasting (baobab and carob included) with nature classification, you will find original ways to register tastes and leave your unique audioprint in the catalog. The collaborative catalog will eventually be on display back in Lisbon, to be used and enriched by artists and library users.
