Abstract:
This paper presents a new answer to one very old question, “What’s for dinner?” Synesthetic Recipes is a graphical interface that allows a person to brainstorm dinner recipe ideas by describing how they imagine the recipe should taste (e.g. “hearty, mushy, moist, aromatic”); to keep mindful of the tastebuds of family members, on-screen avatars anticipating their reactions to recipes enrich the brainstorm with just-in-time family’s feedback.
