I hope "Food" in the subject line got everybody's attention
Got mine.
Somebody started a group[1] on Meetup trying to bring the MIT OpenAg[2] initiative food computer to Zurich.
This is a hot topic at the moment, Caleb Harper's TED video[3] shows exactly what it is.
Interesting talk.
It could be a good opportunity for FSFE involvement as the software is free and the recipes (for growing things) are also free as in freedom.
Would anybody want to build[4] one of these things?
Do you have a estimation of the costs involved for this?
Would anybody have any ideas about other local groups (ecology, culinary or technically-minded people) who should be invited?
I already sent details to a couple of student groups at ETH that appear relevant, including SeedCity[5] and The Alternative[6]
At the moment I can only think of the ZHAW in Wädenswil. They have a Master in Environment and Natural Resources [1]. If you scroll down you will notice that they have a event on the 20th of May.
Best, Giammi
