[[The Soft Protest Digest:About|The Soft Protest, Digest]] is a research collective involving Danish farmer and artist Nickie Sigurdsson and French design duo [http://adelcersaque.eu/ Adel Cersaque].
[[The Soft Protest Digest:About|The Soft Protest Digest]] was an art and research collective founded by Danish artist and gardener Nickie Sigurdsson, with French designers and artists Robin Bantigny and Jérémie Rentien Lando.


Centering its research around food history, agriculture and the social and political ties to what constitutes a food culture, the collective aims to design environmentally resilient diets. May this research be proposed to the residents of a neighborhood, a city, a region or a state, [[The Soft Protest Digest:About|The Soft Protest, Digest]] believes in the usage of storytelling as a way to create or adapt food traditions, recipes and diets which would take into account the cultural heritage and emotional bond between the eater and its local gastronomy.
The collective is using different narratives to test how food culture, in the context of climate change, is created and altered. Calling on the use of fictional traditions, multi-species storytellings, publishing, the landscape and local knowledge; the collective believes that stories create kinship and allies, much needed in a time of environmental breakdown, in order to imagine and realise liveable futures.  
Engaging with the community through eventful meals, workshops and talks, the collective seeks to encompass the knowledge and ressources of the actors at hand in the production of a vernacular food culture in order to design consistent alternatives.

The Soft Protest Digest was an art and research collective founded by Danish artist and gardener Nickie Sigurdsson, with French designers and artists Robin Bantigny and Jérémie Rentien Lando.

The collective is using different narratives to test how food culture, in the context of climate change, is created and altered. Calling on the use of fictional traditions, multi-species storytellings, publishing, the landscape and local knowledge; the collective believes that stories create kinship and allies, much needed in a time of environmental breakdown, in order to imagine and realise liveable futures.
