SUMMARY:Cultivating Taste: Japanese Cuisine and the Promise of Attention
LOCATION:International House Great Room\, 1623 Melrose Place\, Knoxville\,
  TN 37996
DESCRIPTION:What if the luxury of a meal lies in the attention it asks us 
 to give?\n\nThis talk explores how globally circulated representations of
  Japanese food and drink promise craftsmanship\, seasonal sensitivity\, a
 nd a more attentive relationship to everyday life.\n\nFrom the choreograp
 hy of preparation and service to the connoisseurship surrounding kaiseki 
 and Japanese craft cocktails\, we’ll consider how established culinary pr
 actices acquire new value in international markets. Moving beyond nationa
 l branding\, we’ll explore the tensions in positioning Japanese food and 
 drink as both objects of refined\, attentive consumption and remedies for
  global anxieties about distraction\, industrial food production\, and se
 nsory impoverishment.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/817a31ff-d5ee-4e16-b
