The name Metallic Aftertaste for both the theoretical and practical part of the thesis, I am thinking on several levels. The basic starting point is the concept of iron taste in the oral cavity of the human body that can pose a real threat to the onset dysfunction or loss of proper vitality of internal organ relationships. This example loss of control over our own health but also our often abstract perception of it of how the aforementioned internal functions of the organs of the human body and not only function despite accompany us through life for work, opens a critical parallel in relation to today's performance-oriented world that dominates our attention.
