alarm-tam-sang is a playful pun combining alarm, a warning sound or device, with ahan-tam-sang, which refers to customizable à la carte meals in Thai. The project is an experimental cooking session that draws inspiration from incidents where international students inadvertently set off alarms while preparing their meals. In this setup, a more pleasant alarm sound accompanies the cooking process, taking place in a greenhouse where customers can observe the kitchen activity while waiting to be served. The session also illustrates the repetitive cyclical transformation of matters in the setup as they shift states, consume and being consumed.

seedlings observation diary



chia seeds / apple seeds / Goethe plant seeds since 28.10.2024	14.11.2024, 13:05 still alive but growing very slowly watered 1 time over 7 days
07.11.2024 growing pretty slowly compared to the others' apple seeds get a bit moldy Goethe plant seeds are hard to be seen watered 1-2 times over 10 days should water more and move away from cold window	28.11.2024, 01:53 after my 10-day absence dead, leaned on one side since 1-2 days before possibly caused by abrupt change of temperature drop of temperature or heater being turned on all of sudden no water for 10 days
in total the seedlings managed to grow and survived for a month with considerably really little water around once a week.
