TECHNOLOGY IN THE KITCHEN

In the kitchen we can traditionally find a diverse range of
artifacts for food preparation. These include very specific as
involving rituals and symbolic aspects. Some people enjoy
cooking together; several people enjoy cooking for others;
friends and relatives often exchange recipes, which assume a
cultural as well as communicative value. TV cooking shows,
featuring popular cooks or showmen, frame cooking as a
creative and cultural activity. In this sense cooking seems to
provide a great potential for communication. Thus
communication and display technologies can support the
communication and sociability aspects of cooking, and bring
new aspects to its social character.
