Artist looking for stories from people living with smell loss and smell disorders
Hi,
I'm an artist partnering with Monell Chemical Senses Center (an independent research institute dedicated to the scientific understanding of taste and smell). We're making a performance project about smell and smell-loss as it relates to memory, safety, longing, and delight. It also explores the relationship between smell loss on memory loss.
I'm gathering first hand experiences and stories and would love to hear from you! You can send in a voice recording here. (recordings will only be used for research purposes and not shared unless explicit permission has been given).
Much gratitude in advance for anything you're willing to share
(I'm posting this again since it was taken down, and reinstating doesn't seem to have put it back?)
