   * Displays of food tend to be used as verification of authenticity (making dumplings in the window, cutting sashimi in front of customers…) - implying that there might be a lack of trust between the service provider and the customer. Today a lot of the trust issues have been transferred to brands and trademarks, initially set-up as guarantees of quality, now more of a social proof of status (except for eco-certificates). An example where the display goes against quality, but stands for a principle (halal): the Australian sheep are shipped alive to the middle east, only so the local butchers can kill them in the 'proper' way. There is no trust in the Australian butchers to do it properly, even if that means that the meat will be of lower quality due to the animal conditions from the long transport. In the bioluddite context, this might mean exposing or visualising otherwise invisible parts of the biotechnological process (e.g. ritually displaying all ingredients of an inoculation). The aesthetics of the display is important to a bioluddite: it might be something in between a chinese medicine shop and a bio-lab. The question about displays and bioluddism is: how do you verify something for yourself without knowing how to 'do biotechnology'?   * Displays of food tend to be used as verification of authenticity (making dumplings in the window, cutting sashimi in front of customers…) - implying that there might be a lack of trust between the service provider and the customer.
