From biomolecular traces to multisensory experiences: Bringing scent reproductions to museums and cultural heritage
Recent advances in biomolecular archaeology have enabled the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odor-active metabolites in archaeological materials, revealing the scents and olfactory environments of the ancient world. These developments offer new opportunities to reconstruct the sensory worlds of the past through their molecular signatures, from perfumery, ritual and medicinal practices to aspects of daily life. Yet their integra…
Seeing Smell: Sourcing Olfactory Imagery Using Artificial Intelligence
How can artificial intelligence help to “see” smells in works of art? This article discusses the ways in which the Horizon 2020 Odeuropa project uses computer vision to search for olfactory imagery in digital heritage collections. It provides a literature review of the latest approaches to researching smell in art, and outlines the methodology for mining digital collections. It also raises questions about what it means to source smell in digital …
Knowing by Sensing
For this inaugural module of the #AHRSyllabus collection, we invited the historical smells team called Odeuropa to introduce best practice techniques for teaching sensory history in the classroom. Odeuropa is a cross-disciplinary collective of historians, computer scientists, chemists, perfumers, curators and heritage policymakers who are working to develop novel methods for collecting data about historical smells from text and image collections …
Making Whiffstory
A portrait of the Ulm patrician Helena Schermar hangs alongside a pendant of her husband, Anton, in the galleries of Museum Ulm, Ulm (see insert).The painting was probably to commemorate their wedding, which took place in 1628, with their partnership lasting for more than fifty years.The artist Andreas Schuch painted Schermar sumptuously dressed in a floral-patterned overskirt and a generous ruff.Several long loops of chain hang around her neck, …
