Obliquely Strategic Cooking app for iPhone and iPad

Obliquely Strategic Cooking is the Joy of Cooking with Rube Goldberg.

Part inspirational tool, part absurdist art, part unreliable diary, part speculative rune, and part valuable meal planner, Obliquely Strategic Cooking motivates you to put down your iPhone and start cooking something (or at least think about what you might cook next time you start cooking something or may suggest to someone you know next time the subject arises).

In “Have you considered…,” you will engage with essential challenges (literally or hermeneutically, as you wish) to inspire you and help you figure out what to cook for friends, family, lovers, or strangers. Developed for those who enjoy building something out of nothing, “Have you considered…” substitutes the constriction of the recipe for a sea of flow.

In “Great Meals of History,” you will pull inspiration from some of the greatest meals of the last four hundred years, some of which may have happened. Connecting perception and experience to explore the role and vitality of personal histories in gastronomy, “Great Meals of History” pushes you toward building new memories.

Obliquely Strategic Cooking is the first app from Moishe Lettvin and Eric S. Meltzer.
