Last Friday night, artist Man Bartlett opened up his Bushwick apartment on Myrtle avenue for what he conceived as a networked pot-luck extravaganza called “#FEEDFEED.” A self-admittedly low-brow version of Relational Aesthetics, the event invited participants to contribute a meme or internet-inspired dish. The party didn’t only take place in New York as a simultaneous gathering was taking place in Sydney. People could participate in “#FEEDFEED” in person, via [Twitter](http://twitter.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com#!/search/feedfeed) or by watching the livestreams online.

The project was Bartlett’s contribution to [Portal](http://portalforvideo.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com), a cross-platform project that was put together by Janis Ferberg and Stephen Truax.

My favorite part was discovering the creative names people came up with for their potluck contributions.

*Full disclosure: I attended with a Gimme Pizza and Gimme Pizzerelles … if you don’t know the meme, check* [*this*](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wusGIl3v044&ref=hyperallergic.com) *out.*

Here is a partial list of the Brooklyn menu that I compiled with the artist’s help:

- Double Rainbow Cake (pictured above) — coincidentally, [Sydney had one too](http://twitpic.com/6lygxw?ref=hyperallergic.com)
- Angry Birds (roasted chicken)
- Bagetsy
- Ritz Bit Coins
- Hypertext proto-cole slaw
- Prosciutto 3.0
- Kil0-beet salad
- wifi-key (for whiskey)
- hashtag browns
- Chatroulette cookies
- Allow Cookies (there were lots of cookies)
- ICANHAZCHEESEBURGERS — also in [Sydney](http://twitpic.com/6lye6e?ref=hyperallergic.com)
- Chicken Ki-bauds
- Rice Krispy Tweets
- Kalestarter salad
- Mortadella meme (not sure what this is)
- and, of course, Spam.

Sadly there was no [iPad Thai](http://twitter.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com#!/dylanschenker/status/114375008452739072), [Stumble UPrawns](http://twitter.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com#!/dylanschenker/status/114375413375053824), [Sour Klout](http://twitter.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com#!/dylanschenker/status/114374035722354689) or [Fried OKra Cupid](http://twitter.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com#!/dylanschenker/status/114374159685009410).
