Reflection

Our project dealt mostly with a complex web of problems and solutions: how do we respond to pollution, how do large companies respond to this solution, and how do we interact with this answer. In building this web, we came up with a variety of other problems and solutions that could drive the design of our mask, and help explain its presence in the society of the future. Some of these problems, such as the extinction of certain smells due to pollution, could've driven the project in an entirely new direction. Looking back on these ideas, it might have been interesting to further explore the idea of a smell museum, and looked further into the avenue of smell preservation rather than the use of smell to trigger memories.
