Smells are so powerful and evocative, sometimes stronger than visual cues.

As cyberspace matures into a totally immersive experience, I'm betting it will turn out to be fully odor-enabled.

Smell is a long-distance sense, a way of stretching time and finding out in advance what lies ahead.

The sense of smell explores; deleterious substances almost always have an unpleasant smell.

In the digital world, he who hesitates is abandoned. So you have to generate 3-D excitement with as many devices as you can find.

We share our planet quite naturally with a permanent aeroplankton; a buoyant ecology too soft to hear, too small to see, but heavy with mood and meaning. Imagine being aware of all these airy inclusions - and you can begin to understand how it might feel to be able to smell really well.

I think a fragrance is all about sensations and imagery, and can evoke visions, feelings and thoughts.

I like the smell of film. I just like knowing there's film going through the camera.

In classical oil painting, there seemed to be a radical turn to seeing things as the camera sees them, with that technological modification. I began to have a tremendous problem with all of this.
