Bitter
Color photo on cardboard.
The advertising campaign from Talis, featuring the iconic Ora drink, always transports me back to the 1980s. I vividly recall summer days spent at the swimming pool in Murska Sobota, where I first explored a variety of flavors. Of all the drinks I tried, Ora stood out with its distinctive sweet-bitter taste and vibrant yellow color, leaving a lasting impression.

We invite you to summon the muses to the Museum of Flavors by thinking about the flavors in your life—at and away from the table; and remember the moments you associate with a particular taste.
First, we chose the instruments: for the "salty" guitar (Astrid Kukovič), for the "bitter" piano (Sašo Vollmaier), for the "sour" harmonica (Dominik Cvitanič), for the "burning" violin (Andreja Klinc) and for the "sweet" flute (Asia Grauf). Melodies were created spontaneously. "Bitter" improvisations are low and legato, "salty" more decisive, articulate, "sour" high and dissonant, while "sweet" ones are unison, slow and soft.

An important mission of modern museums is to connect the past with the present, implement new approaches for the cultivation of new generations and work in favor of culture and society in general. We invite you to read the personal stories of people who have contributed their objects to the Museum of Taste, and at the same time let this be an invitation to participate in the project yourself.
