Gastrophysics is the combination of gastronomy and psychophysics – gastronomy being the knowledge and understanding of all that relates to man as he eats, and psychophysics being the branch of psychology that deals with the relations between physical stimuli and mental phenomena.
Gastrophysics is the concept behind g-Astronomy, a collaboration between the Imperial College London astrophysicist Roberto Trotta and chef Jozef Youssef. You can watch the great videos (freely available on Youtube here and here) behind the project and find inspirational ideas to engage with more diverse audiences.
