Australian artist and ‘body architect’ Lucy McRae, in collaboration with Harvard biologist Sheref Mansy, is releasing these little digestible capsules that make human skin emit perfume scents. Which is nice and futuristic, I think. And by futuristic I mean I have no idea how this thing works.
Says the Swallowable Parfum press release:
Fragrance molecules are excreted through the skin’s surface during perspiration, leaving tiny golden droplets on the skin that emanate a unique odor. The potency of scent is determined
by each individual’s acclimatization to temperatures, to stress, exercise, or sexual arousal.Swallowable Parfum is a capsule that enables human skin to emit a genetically unique scent about who we are, and how we perform our identities.
I have no idea what ‘fragrance molecules’ are supposed to be, either. Also, does this mean that sweaty people are going to start smelling better than non-sweaty people?
I’m not sure I like this dystopian vision of the future, guys. I’m reasonably sure that it’s not healthy to be sweating ‘tiny golden droplets.’
