Ahhh... the sweet smell of home. Our inaugural episode explores how location relates to scent as host Saskia Wilson-Brown speaks to several perfumers and artists that work with real or imagined geographies in their practice. First, perfumers Spyros Drosopoulos (Baruti Perfumes), Dana El Masri (Jazmin Saraï) and Frank Bloem (The Snifferoo) talk about scent in relation to culture and location. Dr. Kate McLean then joins us to discuss her pioneering work mapping smells in cities, followed by perfumers Terees Western (FragranTed) and Ashley Eden Kessler (Studio Sentir) talking about how smell relates to their experience of the city. We’ll close out the program with some field reports: Donna Lipowitz (Lipowitz Smells) will share a poem about jasmine, and Refugio Jimenez (Arcane Chemistry)discusses a smell memory of his childhood in Arizona.
Take a deep breath, close your eyes, and think about what you smell. It's placemaking, at its most aromatic.

Perfume on the Radio
11/23/21 • 58 min
This episode explores language and scent - more specifically, the potential relationship between the spoken word, the written word and smell in Arabic. We are joined by two people who deeply engage with the language. Oakland-based educator Dr. Gaye Walton-Price provides a brief primer on the Arabic language (and its various dialects). Dr. Walton-Price is followed by Bradford-based artist Razwan Ul-Haq, sharing his work and exploring how scent interfaces with meaning through calligraphy.
