Phase .1 Mapping of sensory experiences
1st investigation:
As a cook at Pancake Parlour (Dandenong along Princess Highway), it’s extremely chaotic and frustrating where everything is going all at once at the same time, and situations are hard to keep up. Thus working as a cook at Pancake Parlour creates rich in sensory information/impressions such as sound, smell, touch and etc.
Sound Working in the kitchen area this is what I can hear:
- Waiters calling/yelling out cooks name indicating that dockets are in, in order to cook the customer’s food.
- Food being cook such as steaks, fish, cakes and etc. The sizzling sound.
- Drinks area, where you can hear the machines operating to make drinks.
- As your walking, the floor is extremely sticky as you can hear your own foot steps.
- Fans operating.
- Water taps running.
- Dishes, glasses being stacked up.
- Dish washer operating.
- The beeper being activated as the customer walks in the front door.
- Making the pancake mix, you can hear the sound of milk and flour coming together. Also the air bubbles being popped.
Touch Most of the times as a cook, I stand near the hot plate, this is what I feel:
- Heat.
- Spray of hot oil/butter.
- Coldness of the metal benches, freezer and fridge.
- Raw meat, fish coated with milk and bread crumbs.
- The texture of the crepes.
- Stickiness of the ice-cream scoops.
Smell The atmosphere can become overwhelming, this is what I smell:
- Stench of the bins and floor mats.
- Odor from my body, sweat.
- Food, pancake mix, oils.
- Mushroom sauce and Tabriz sauce (spaghetti sauce).
- Stench from the water from the sink and dish washer area.
2nd investigation:
Edward Munch
The scream 1893
During work, because it’s chaotic and frustrating at the same time, I feel like to scream. Also the color red and blue is clashing together indicating that sometimes I can be calm, however, when there is huge numbers of food being called at the same time, it can be hell.
3rd investigation:
This is a brain yoyo which contains ball bearings in order to provide longer spin as you play with it. As you’re playing with this yoyo, you can hear the sound of the ball bearings whilst it’s spinning, a screeching sound. While playing with it, the sound brings back old school memories.
