 # Final Project
 
 
-This week I worked on defining my final project idea and started to getting used to the documentation process.

 ## Research

+- sensory description system
+- technical qualities
+- raw vs. made
+- physical form
+- organic vs. inorganic
+- criteria
+
+## Definitions
+
+- Abundance-aware (local physical archive only from locally abundant materials)
+- Circular
+- Plant-based/vegan if possible
+- Cruelty free
+- Non-toxic
+- Contested
+- Biobased, biodegradable, biocompostable
+- Open-source (we know how it's made)
+
+## Decisions
+
+- color comes from somewhere too: no added colors
+- until we know how synthetic food coloring is made, no food coloring
+- color is a material
+- stuff that is grown in a controlled environment is also "made"
+- physical selection should show variation in *physical forms*, and show the main ingredient types we know to use to biofabricate.
+- physical selection is made in such a way to also demonstrate a variety in textures and sensory qualities
+- recipes should include pointers for drying/curing
+- recycling or upcycling also has a place in the archive
+- we don't use food unless it's considered waste (e.g. onion skins, egg shells, overripe mangos from the market). So no fresh berries for dye.
+
+## Local archive
+
+- Every new  entry is a variation on an existing one
+- A variation can only entail _one change_ at a time (don't change both the additive and the curing process).
+- Reason for the variation is stated (e.g. local tap water is too alkaline so we use mineral water, wanted a more flexible biosilicon).
+- Shows relationships between the samples (network)?
+
+### Local recipe should include
+
+- ingredients 
+- utensils
+- process
+- drying tips/tricks
+- pros and cons/concerns/contestations/question marks
+- potential health hazards
+- estimated cost and vendors
+- technical qualities (e.g. water/heat/light proof?)
+
+## Digital archive
+
+- Includes all information except hyperlocal info
+- A new entry is made when the recipe is changed to the extent that the qualities of the material change and the sensory descriptions do not match the resulting material anymore.
+- The criterium of being locally abundant does not apply here.
+- Entries should state where an ingredient is grown/sourced.
+- Entries should state how long it takes for an ingredient to renew itself. 
+- Entries should state the cultural and/or intellectual history of the material (including references or further reading)
+- Entries should describe the sensory qualities of any material (because this is lost in digitization)
+- Entries contain a video/gif for sound and haptic info
+
+### Keep options open for
+
+- info about technical material tests
+- chemical interactions etc
+- techniques, case studies, applications
+- peer reviewing/upvoting
+- section for techniques
+- section for open-source tooling
+
+
+## Typologies
+
+Made vs raw....Not very specific. Also raw seems like it's just there. Nothing is ever just there. Made could be:
+
+- extracted
+- cooked
+- grown
+- knotted, tied or woven
+- modified (chemically)
+- chemically connected or combined (e.g. glued)
+- mechanically connected or combined
+- eroded
+- encapsulated
+- pressed or flattened
+
+Alternatives: 
+- ingredient vs. result
+- ingredient vs. outcome
+- ingredient vs. semi-product/material vs. processed "bewerking"
+- singular vs. processed
+- singular vs. connected through processes and techniques
+
+None of them really work! Is something ever really singular? Is something EVER really from scratch? Maybe ingredient > material is the better so far. 
+
+- matter vs. material
+- substance vs. material
+- matter vs. culture ;-P hehehe
+
+**Or maybe fivefold:** 
+
+1. matter (the substance) 
+1. techne (the craft, "thick") 
+1. technik (the abstract rules, "hard"). 
+1. doxa
+1. episteme
+
+Where techne is being able to do it well to be able realise it and technik might be seen as the hard science behind it (the chemistry for example). And doxa could be the denominator for how we normally relate to it, related to its functions (like we'd call something biosilicone but it's not silicone, or kombucha leather, but it's strictly speaking not "leather" but it helps us understand each other in common terms. 
+
+And episteme, or understanding would be the holistic understanding of all of those, including culturally/historically/politically.
