Demetris

Eating live octopus or “Sannakji” in South Korea is seen as an originality and health dish. A live baby octopus is served as it is normally or cut up and immediately served usually with sesame oil. The difficulty is the tentacles are still squirming and fighting as you chew them to death inside your mouth.

A special item or mechanism for the process and digestion could be really useful for everyone who likes “Sannakji”.

After several studies and research for the octopus not only as a food but its morphology and operation I designed a prosthetic based on its shape, flexibility and movement. A prosthetic which will help for the whole food process and digestion.

Then followed a kiosk design, selling “Sannakji”. The design of the kiosk is based on the prosthetic’s mechanism.
