For Jeremijenko,  molecular gastronomy allows for complex foods that address complex  problems. The technoscience mediation made visible in molecular  gastronomy models an interventionist environmentalism that may be scaled  up to create new wetland environments to better \u201cdigest\u201d oil spills.  Digestion becomes a way of figuring the landscape and encountering  animals, plants, and environmental systems, with molecular gastronomy  techniques providing metaphoric and literal frameworks for imagining how  bodies and landscapes interrelate. Imagining wetland environments as  digestive organs invites us to imagine our digestive systems as  environments, landscapes, and ecologies. Attention to the visual  cultures of the very small often employs language that evokes the very  large, with individual human microbiomes described as islands, figured  as territory to be explored. Often referred to as an \u201cecology\u201d or an  \u201cecosystem,\u201d the human microbiome has been productively analyzed with  ecological theory. Rather than taking a territorial or colonial approach  to the human microbiome, I would suggest the cloud and metaphors of  atmospheric shift, drift, and blooming open up a field of action and  intervention where plants and animals converge in our understanding of  how our bodies cooperate with a changing population of bacteria,  viruses, and fungi.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lindsay Kelley\u2019s<\/strong> art practice and scholarship explore  how the experience of eating changes when technologies are being eaten.
