Waag Open: Miso Magic (sold out)

In the Netherlands we prefer to eat an old-fashioned bread roll with cheese at lunchtime. But what to do with all that old bread?

Erika Hirose developed a 'kit' to turn old bread into Japanese miso. Erika's husband, Martin, links data from the fermentation process via sensors to sound. During this Waag Open edition, you can get to work making miso and music yourself. Bring your old, leftover bread. Leftover potatoes, pasta, rice or noodles are also welcome. 

It promises to be an evening for all senses!
