Food art specialists [Bompas & Parr](http://bompasandparr.com/?ref=protein.xyz) are to curate a one-off event which will stream images directly from food writer Gizzi Erskine's digestive tract to a live audience, all set to a jazz soundtrack. Working with gastroentologist Dr Simon Anderson, Erskine will outline the practice of endoscopy before swallowing a tiny SynMed pill-cam, which will then document the footage, live, as it moves through her alimentary canal. The freeform jazz soundtrack to accompany all this will be provided by Dom James and his Alvine Argonauts.  
Bompas & Parr assert the event presents a unique perspective of a celebrated foodist, offering a view from inside - perhaps the world's first 'internal selfie'. The images will be used to illustrate "Memoirs of a Stomach", an 1863 diet book told from the perspective of a stomach, combining gastroentological photography with scans of the book, available this October.  
Tickets are are £10 and are available [here](http://www.bompassandparr.com/?ref=protein.xyz).  
The event is in contrast to an earlier project of Bompas & Parr's, that gave the [humble Heinz baked bean a visual and musical makeover](https://www.prote.in/en/feed/2013/03/bompas-parr-beanz?ref=protein.xyz).
