Finding value in a loaf of bread

A loaf of bread provides value at many levels, from microscopic organisms to humans. For microorganisms like spores and mold, bread is a source of food, water, and shelter that allows them to reproduce and thrive in communities. Larger organisms like ants use bread crumbs as nourishment and don't waste anything. While bread may lack nutrients needed by birds and be potentially harmful, humans are unique in both consuming and creating bread in various forms due to its symbolic, religious, and cultural significance. A single loaf can feed a person or family multiple times.

value of any object is subjective... The ...determined by the gaze through which the object is looked at. Our team chose to exploit the value of bread from a micro to macro level, from micro-organism to human being. We were curious to explore how the bread is experienced and how its perceived value changes.
Somewhere... ...nearby the moist surface of a single slice of bread
Wow!!! Food and water... We can build a home here!
The temperature is also perfect for us to reproduce!
Look! There is a wall of bacteria! Lets attack its cell membrane and destroy it! 1 slice of bread can host innumerable spores as it provides them food, water and a desirable environment for reproducing.
We have built a wonderful MOLD! We can live here for a lifetime! For spores, the loaf of bread is not just a food...it is a community built by thousands of spores! And they actively protect this community agians outsiders like bacteria!
Did I hear right?? These things can kill life threatening bacteria!! Alexander Fleming - Discovered Penicillin from a mold Penicillin is an Infection -fighting agent of enormous potency
EVERY crumb has value
Ants appear to operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony. Ants use bread crumbs as nourishment.
Ants are typically very resourceful. Nothing goes to waste in a colony.
Bread is harmful to birds. Bread fed to birds often lack vital nutrients which birds need.
= For a bird, bread would mean poison 'Hadron Collider once broke down because a passing bird dropped bread on it'
Of those creatures that consume bread, humans are the only ones who also have the ability to create it... in different ways!
The Whole is Greater than the Sum of its Parts Humans have the ability to see bread as more than just nourishment, more than just a handful of ingredients unlike fungus,ants or birds. Scope: 1 loaf of bread can feed 1 person multiple times, or 1 family.
Bread is a staple sustenance in many cultures. However, if in some countries bread is found everywhere, being only a small part of ones nutrition in other parts of the world, bread could be considered as a luxury.
