activity parameters
physical boundaries: (from Wikipedia) "The word "culinary" is defined as something related to, or connected with, cooking or kitchens... Culinary artists are responsible for skillfully preparing meals that are as pleasing to the palate as to the eye."
who's involved: Those who are interested in technique, refining the culinary arts, and are willing to volunteer knowledge and time to others who share their interests.
equipment: Kitchen appliances, Utensils, an array of pots/pans, knives, etc.
research
demographics: People ages 25-50 who have the means (free time and money) to devote to a somewhat practical hobby. They must have creative drive, posses a basic level of web savyness, and a somewhat fearless disposition. On the flip side, some of the participants will be culinary experts who are willing to offer their expertise and feedback to the community.
individual needs: to gain or share knowledge to promote the culinary arts as part of the everyday.
community needs: These would include a public forum to express their knowledge and creativity. This would include a venue to share ideas, receive feedback, and ask questions. Their needs would also include a library of information that would catalog a collective knowledge of the culinary arts
motivation: This could be tied to recipe and cooking competitions, contribution awards, positive and negative media (movies such as Julie & Julia, shows such as Top Chef, or current events such as food recalls). Our community would also be interested in following celebrity chefs and the social significance of a finely crafted meal.
