"The event 'The Lost Sense Experience' explores the role and impact of the sense of smell"
The Julia Stoschek Foundation in Mitte, Berlin, is hosting "The Lost Sense Experience," an immersive exhibition running from August 15th to August 3rd. This thought-provoking event invites visitors to delve into the beauty and fragility of life, utilising innovative technologies that blend art and medicine to explore sensory experiences [2].
One of the key features of the exhibition is the "Create Your Own Scent" interactive activity. This offers participants the chance to craft their unique fragrance [1].
In addition, the exhibition aims to raise awareness about the loss of the sense of smell, a consequence of the pandemic, and the impact it has had on thousands of individuals. Experts have identified training as the most established and promising form of therapy for post-viral smell disorders, as smell cells are nerve cells that can be regenerated by the body [3].
For those affected by anosmia, the partial or complete loss of the sense of smell, the exhibition offers the opportunity to win a smell training set. To participate, call 01379 - 030 881 from August 1st to 25th, say "smell" and pay 0.50 Euro per call. However, it's important to note that only one prize can be won per participant, and no legal recourse or cash payment is possible [5].
It's worth noting that the exhibition is not limited to those affected by anosmia. Employees of Axel Springer Germany GmbH and their relatives are not eligible to participate [6].
As of the time of the exhibition, approximately 100,000 people in Germany are still affected by anosmia due to Corona, while more than 4 million people have suffered from the condition as a result of the virus [7].
To find more information on how to participate in the exhibition and win the smell training set, check the presence.gmbh Instagram page and the event page on rausgegangen.de, which has the event description and potentially contact or registration links [2][4]. The exhibition itself is free to attend [8].
