The SYMBLAB recipe book can be likened to a nautical chart: as a map of sea-based material possibilities. It charts avenues for exploration, provides information on previous routes, signals dead ends, and hints at hazards along the way. Because the destination is as much myth as it is math, the recipe book enables designerly ways of going where the wind takes you just as much as rigorous scientific experimentation. In the spirit of open source, this recipe book welcomes continuations, corrections and collaborations. Through sharing SYMLAB aims to nourish local communities through creative exploration of locally sourced sea-based materials.
