224: How much can an algorithm 'do' perfumery?
Show notes
When art & design turn their ambitions toward technology and olfaction, how much does a machine powered by algorithms, AI, or both, challenge an industry known for gatekeeping (and upcharging), and how much does it supplant the craftsmanship and skill of a perfumer? We discuss such iffiness after experiencing a custom scent-making installation that questions, "What if every human could create their own scent?"
[What we smell like today: Prada Infusion de Santal Chai, "Forever Yong" made by Sable using Algorithmic Perfumery]
