Ok, so the title of my project has changed several times from 'Olfaction Re-discovered', to 'Emotional Design for the Senses' and finally 'Emotional Design for Communication. I'm happy with that now, as I feel that the world needs to communicate more on a personal and emotional level. So my initial focus on the senses is being given a back seat to the real message I'm trying to put across which is that 'Emotional Comunication' needs to be awakened.

So here is the deal...
My 3rd year project was all bout scent technology and designing a device that would bring people together using smells.
The theory was that if smells can trigger memories, they can also trigger emotions and therefore links to other people, places, anything.
Commnication has broken down over the years, leaving people to share their emotions with devices which is then translated into a digital version of a human response.
I designed a device that a person could carry with them which would emitt a smell on command, triggering a more human response to a digital message.
My aim from now, is to go back and take my project apart, research it fuller and come up with a complete solution.
