What is Good Bread? (Good Bread #1)
Listen now
Description
How is the quality of bread measured by the system that produces and consumes it?  Good Bread is a three part series made with Farmerama exploring The Body Lab, a participatory arts and research project by baker Kimberley Bell and artist Ruth Levene considering standardised grain testing and the possibility of reimagining measurement within the system that surrounds bread production. The Body Lab is funded by Farming The Future. Thanks to Shipton Mill for their openness and generosity in allowing the Body Lab to explore these ideas. Good Bread is hosted and produced by Lucy Dearlove. Thanks to everyone at Farmerama who has helped on this series in various ways: Jo Barratt, Abby Rose, Dora Taylor, Olivia Oldham, Annie Landless, Eliza Jenkins and Lucy Fisher. The music is by Owen Barratt. The artwork was by Hannah Grace.  If you haven't already listened to Cereal, the previous Farmerama series about bread made by Katie Revell, I really urge you to.
