"The Hacktivist Guide for Food Security" by Schmidt Hammer Lassen (Digital version)
The Hacktivist Guide to Food Security aims to explore ways that architecture and urban design can positively influence the food system. The publication seeks to demystify and compare innovative food systems by analysing connections between their environmental, economic, and social foundations. It also reveals how these systems are established and operated so that possibilities for engagement become clear. The research contained in this book focuses on urban food production. It represents the first of a series of studies connecting the urban environment to the invisible forces at work in our lives. Our analysis of environments through the Living Design method has revealed this as a necessary but neglected piece in our industry’s focus.
The guide is organised in five scales. It addresses the agency of individuals, communities, architects, urban consultants, developers, politicians, researchers, educators, and those already engaged in the food system. For Schmidt Hammer Lassen, the research is crucial for dealing with complex projects utilising food systems as a catalyst for change.
