\u201cWithin commodity culture, ethnicity becomes spice, seasoning that can liven up the dull dish that is mainstream white culture.\u201d — bell hooks, dans <\/span>Eating the Other<\/span>: Desire and Resistance<\/span><\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cook Your Way<\/span><\/em> is a game about how immigration systems and capitalist discourses of multiculturalism combine. In the game’s fiction, visa applicants (or players) are instructed\u00a0 by immigration authorities to prepare\u00a0 a typical dish of their country of origin using a cooking station. The system evaluates applicants according to their efficiency and potential to contribute to the destination country’s society. Cooking becomes a standardized test, one step within a longer application process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Players act through a cooking station alternative controller, a custom-built device with interactive components for different actions, like adding ingredients, stirring a pot or chopping vegetables. Using the system involves performing gestures that resemble actions of food preparation, but recontextualized and filtered through particular lenses. Such actions are closely monitored and should be done as instructed. These prompts are intertwined with questions and comments adapted from actual immigration forms and brochures.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cook Your Way<\/span><\/em> combines sardonic humor and pointed critique. It highlights the tensions and significance of cultural commodification and the purposeful complexity and alienation involved in immigration systems. Through play, it aims to raise questions and reflections about the multimodal interfaces of control, labor, and the meritocratic narratives that permeate immigration.<\/span><\/p>\n
