Recently I’ve been challenging a new carrier: academic writing. From my background of exhibiting various olfactory art installations, I got interested in meta-communication in olfaction depicted in Japanese classical literature, mainly The Tale of Genji. However this essay has nothing to do with my art – purely an academic essay.
Title: “Oikaze: The Role of Heian Scent Culture and Olfactive Communication in The Tale of Genji”
