Food for Thought is a research-as-art performative component to a larger work conceived of by a collective of students in the Department of Visual Arts at California State University Fullerton, and comes out of the collective's study of social practice art in general and, more specifically, their study of performance in Mexico and Central America in a seminar taught in the fall of 2012. On a sunny afternoon in early October, students gathered, in a shaded quad in front of the Humanities Building of the university, to trade their homemade baked goods for their fellow students’ thoughts on art, performance, and their larger concerns about their place in the world. Volunteers filled out written surveys and some agreed to be interviewed on camera. The action was documented with photographs and videos. Upcoming events include processing the data, followed by an analysis, and, eventually, decision-making regarding the next step to be taken in this larger performative project.
