Dunne and Raby "Between Reality and the Impossible"

my favorite of the four designs in "Between Reality and the Impossible" was the foragers concept. 

"Foragers: The world is running out of food – we need to produce 70% more food in the next 40 years according to the UN. Yet we continue to over-populate the planet, use up resources and ignore all the warning signs. It is completely unsustainable. In this scenario, a group of people take their fate into their own hands and start building DIY devices. They use synthetic biology to create “microbial stomach bacteria”, along with electronic and mechanical devices, to maximise the nutritional value of the urban environment, making-up for any shortcomings in the commercially available but increasingly limited diet. These people are the new urban foragers"

Of the seven images for the foragers this was the one that I liked the best. 


I like this one because it looks like a scene that I would see in a sci-fi or futuristic movie. Out of all of the scenes this one seemed to me to fit and not be out of place.
