Welcome to the confluence of the arts and cuisine. Many composers, painters, choreographers, and other creative sorts exhibit an intense love of eating, drinking, and cooking. (Creative sorts often create for all of the senses, not just the ones for which they are most celebrated, and their creations for the olfactory organs can be pure delight.)

This is a place for you to share your favorite anecdotes, moments you have experienced first hand or have heard about or read in books and journals. Click here for an email field to send us an email with these and we will take the best ones, photoshop them playfully, and paste them in one of the chez lusory journals for the world to share, with due credit to you for sharing them.

chez lusory is where such delectable moments of confluence can be experienced. It soon will be seeded with some of our favorites: recipes from composer/philosopher John Cage, sketches from the “road journals” of composer Mikel Rouse (whose love of "road food" makes him an unofficial chez lusory roaming reporter), composer Morton Feldman's anecdotes about the informal 1960s artist gatherings at N.Y.’s Cedar Bar, just to name a few. We hope this first, um, course will inspire members of the lusory community to contribute similarly-inspired morsels.
