The podcast is for creators, small businesses and the curious. It uncovers the magic and science behind what makes us feel, starting at first sight.
The first guests in series one include:
• Experimental psychologist Professor Charles Spence from the University of Oxford.
• Artisan perfumer Sarah McCartney from 4160 Tuesdays.
• Editor of Design Week Rob Alderson on the stand-up show he created for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
• Chef Jozef Youssef, founder of Kitchen Theory, a restaurant with an award-winning immersive chef’s table supper club.
Also joining me in series one are TV presenter LJ Rich, audio alchemist Steve Keller, artist Sue Webster, typographer Dan Rhatigan and podcast host Radim Malinic.
Join me, Sarah Hyndman, as I talk to experts from different fields to discover how they connect what we see to what we sense and feel. Find out how they work with the senses to shape our emotions, memories and choices. How they create unforgettable experiences that people can’t help talking about.
My guests are people who have inspired my multi-sensory journey over the last 12 years. What was only meant to be one year away from running my graphic design business back in 2013, turned into a whole new career, when I started to go to events and discovered that I could be a part of this amazing world where science meets creativity meets senses.
The most exciting ideas happen when we connect across different disciplines.
