Sweet Smell of Success: The Inspired Conversation with Scented Storytelling Artist, Tammy Burnstock

My inspiring guest, Tammy Burnstock, the leading Smell-0-Vision olfactory film restoration artist and scent events producer, writer, & director, shares her unbridled passion and energy from her home in Australia for all things "Scent-ual" ~ especially her company: "Scented Storytelling," as well as scented film cinema, scent events for children, & scent archeology. You'll hear abut her fascinating work; and collaboration with other artists and researchers aka Scent Historians to produce scent-based events. In our Conversation, Tammy talks about the excitement of engaging with the sensual power of scent. Tammy shares the magic of collaborating on the first ~ and last ~ Smell-O-Vision ~ restoring the 1960's "Scent of Mystery" & the constellation of artful genres ignited by the film, including the re-creation of the scent worn by the film’s star & co-producer, Elizabeth Taylor. (*see my previous post about the Scent of Mystery gallery event and the perfume) And why does everyone knows about Smell-O-Vision but hasn't ever experienced it? It's a technology that is enduring in our pop culture so why not revive and revise this cool, immersive experience? We discuss how now is the time for scent in film experiences. Don't you agree? With passion and energy, Tammy takes us backstage in her research producing the documentary, "In Glorious Smell-O Vision," the true story of the godfather of Scented Cinema and its technology, Hans Laube. She also describes a recent project, working again with Jas Brooks on a new scent & flavor project inspired by the 1920's film "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." It was exciting and fascinating to learn about Tammy's live scent events, including the "Schnozz-Lit" café; her new scratch n' sniff cinema accessories; the language of scent; and her work in children's participatory experiences. Her “Show & Tell” in the video really makes it all the more interesting to understand the power and pleasure of scent. This was such a fun, "Scent-sational, sensory-learning experience. Please enjoy this lively, Conversation. Thank you Tammy ~ you are so very inspiring. Cheers.
