Ep 14: Food x Tech

You catch the IGTV episode here.

Today's guest Anusha Murthy is the co-creator of a publication covering food systems called Edible Issues and works on product development at the food robotics startup Nymble. With a background in engineering and interest in food, she combines her two strengths and works at the intersection of food and technology in non-traditional ways. As part of a fellowship through the Food Innovation Program in 2018 at the Food Institute in Italy, she explored the applications of technology in food systems. In this episode, she talks about the kinds of people in the field, the room for experimentation and opportunities and the qualities as well as knowledge it takes to be in this field. She offers plenty of resources, tips and advice for those interested in transitioning into her field. Anusha answers questions that range from "Can designers be involved in Food Tech?" to "Which core competency is more important: knowledge about food or technology?"

Just like food, tech is also a horizontal field that is approachable and accessible to all disciplines because it touches every aspect of our life.
