SULPHUR & MERCURY
nu_be elements 2013
Sulphur and mercury are two “demanding” elements. Their fame, the wide spectrum of their scientific employments, the thick weave of their interpretations and their historical value have represented an unmissable challenge for nu_be, always involved in the composition of its olfactory periodic table’s mosaic.

“Non essendo innocenti, i loro corpi contengono l'esperienza. E questo significa che la loro capacità di sentire può diventare palpabile; sotto la loro pelle c'è un universo.”
(John Berger, E i nostri volti, amore mio, leggeri come foto, Milano, Mondadori, 2008)
THE PERFUME TABLE
A nu_be’s video-aural experience by Longform London
“Scent is one of the last frontiers of experience. Scientists are just beginning to understand how scent works: how elements use quantum-tunneling to connect with our receptors, with our minds, our emotions.
nu_be explodes the expectations of what a scent can be. Helium, Hydrogen, Lithium take us back to the fundamentals - mixing new narratives, new forms, with you at the centre.”
