The Insanity of Curated Life

 

This is my RMIT graduation project. There are 3 parts to it.

​

1. The book 

2. Scented solution sheets

3. Mirror

​

The book talks about the negative effects of social media while the solution sheets provide suggestions on how to deal with it. Each solution sheet has it’s own scent. As the reader reads it their brain makes a connection between the information they received and the scent subconsciously. Lastly, the mirror signify and encourage self reflection.

 

 

I have chosen to work with human sense of scent for this project as it is the most powerful sense among all. Smell is closely linked with our memory and has the ability to trigger memories that was long forgotten. Not only that, it helps the brain to make sense of things.I hope that my readers could register and create a connection with the scent so they will be reminded of how harmful social media is when they smell the scent again in future.
