#150: In this episode Frauke sits down with philosophy professor Benjamin Young, PhD. to philosophize about smell. Ben shares what he believes are two big misconceptions about smell and explains how smells are cognitively represented and why that matters in philosophy. He tells us how smell offers insights into consciousness and unconsciousness, and why he believes science needs to move beyond a visual orientation when it comes to olfactory research. Ben gives his explanation for why we struggle to name smells, and dives deeper into olfactory awareness. He also reveals what he hopes people will take away from the book, as well as what’s next on the horizon. This conversation will definitely leave you thinking about olfaction in new and interesting ways.
