Project Nourished combines molecular gastronomy with virtual reality to create limitless dining experiences. It uses 3D printed algae as the substrate, as well as a VR headset, an aromatic diffuser, a bone conduction transducer, a gyroscopic utensil, and a virtual cocktail glass. This technology has infinite possibilities and can also help with issues like weight management, diabetes and food allergies.

Combining avant-garde cooking techniques with high-tech kitchen tools and a poetic sense of whimsy, molecular gastronomy is equal parts art and science. From deconstructed dishes to playful foams to smoky liquid nitrogen desserts, molecular chefs seek to explore food differently.
