fritto misto







crossings






︎ ABOUT   
Floating Ideas for Change was a small event and prototype for action on Belmonte beach and water. It reclaimed the existing public space and hacked traditional and local food business models. This was to test a methodology to generate economic revenue directed towards local and international projects which connect to crossings in ethical and practical terms.


︎ PROCESS
For the event taking place in Belmonte Calabro, Fritto Misto tested a collaboration with Pescheria Il Faro to produce a "fritto on water", using the Tranguilla as a floating shared table to serve food and acting as a central stage for discussion. Equipped with "carta-oleata" Fritto Misto created a ‘cuoppo- archive’ of practices and ideas. While eating, the ‘cuoppo-archive’ allowed diners to explore and take-home mappings of practices, projects and words which connect and relate us to one another.


︎OUTPUT 
Fritto served at sunset, accompanied by a presentation and performance by the shore and immersed in sea water. Buckets of fritto for guests - each with its own story - surrounded a central informal stage on the beach where Fritto Misto presentations, readings and collective discussion took place, generating and exploring floating ideas for change.
