Ofrendas Rituales de Comida
Seguimos nuestra alianza con Parsons School of Design. Hablamos con la estudiante Chel Chan, que propone c\xf3mo los rituales populares taiwaneses podr\xe1n seguir existiendo en un futuro sin que los ingredientes ceremoniales necesarios est\xe9n disponibles. Por ejemplo, en el a\xf1o 2100 las medusas habr\xe1n reemplazado al cerdo como base ritual y alimentaria de su pa\xeds. El profesor Alonso Castro explora estos nuevos s\xedmbolos. Chel Chan tambi\xe9n trabaja con la organizaci\xf3n Send Chinatown Love, apoyando a los negocios peque\xf1os de Chinatown, Nueva York.\n\nThis week, we continue our collaboration with Parsons School of Design. We speak with student Chel Chan, who speculates how Taiwanese folk rituals\xa0might continue in a future in which the necessary ceremonial ingredients are no longer available. In the year 2100, rising sea levels will make traditional farming less practical \u2013 and perhaps the ritual staples of pork and chicken will have been replaced by jellyfish. We\u2019ll explore these new cultural symbols with professor Alonso Castro. Chel Chan also works with the organization Send Chinatown Love, which supports small businesses in Chinatown, New York.\n\nProducido por Anna Oakes.
