Smell as a design tool -- the S sense project | Omer Polak | TEDxLausanne

http://www.tedxlausanne.org - Omer Polak (http://www.omerpolak.com) is a designer and artist. His recent projects focus on our sensory experience of the world. Omer is using multi-disciplinary and collaborative approaches to create new experiences that could change the life of the viewer/participant. Omer has been honored at the Core77 design awards (Food Design) in 2013. The sense of smell is central to our everyday life. It is a major component of our taste perception; it warns us against danger and affects our mood. It also has quite an influence on our sexual attraction and pair bonding. But are we fully aware of all this influence? Can we smell fear or happiness? How do people with an impaired olfactory perception cope with it? Omer Polak tells us how design innovation and neuroscience offer us a new way to experience the world. -------------------------------------------------------- In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
