Olfactory
Conceptual exploration of mediated scent storage
Olfactory is a speculative scent-based memory collection and recollection system.
In a near-future where the air is toxic to humans but not to other fauna and flora.
In this world, human breath is filtered of all impurities, including smell particles.
A special device is solely dedicated to the collection of smells: the “Olfactory Suit”.
The loss of previously ubiquitous scent also means a loss of associated memory.
By storing scents using Memory Balloons, we can take our time to collect them, and share them with friends.
