  • Scents and prototyping

    Our smell is much less tangible than touch, hearing, or vision. There is yet no digital, electronic, or mechanical equivalent for the molecules that tease our noses. And how we label our nose sensations is the least objective of them all. So a controlled use of scents in arts, games and environment control is an ongoing and long-cherished wish. From technical point of view there are a diversity of techniques to bring the smells in the air: heating, atomising, through solvents, nebulizing... all with there own specific technical merites.
