Food Not Disturb (2023), made with Josh Zhong

- ITP Winter Show 2023 (Dec 17th - 18th, 2023)
Found at the buffet in a fictional absurd hotel operated by Kenji Kwakami (inventor of Chindogu) and Kenya Hara (art director at Muji), “Food Not Disturb” is a plate lock that buffet diners put on their plates to protect their unfinished bites from being taken away when they leave the table.

Once put around the plate and switched on, the indicator light will light up. If waiters were to lift the plate, the device will trigger an alarm that will only stop when the plate is set back down.
