Let Me Know You
My work “Let Me Know You” is a performance: without the audiences knowing what is going to happen, I sniff their body from toe to head like an animal, with no physical touching. The most of audiences feel uncomfortable during the performance, others, try to sniff me back at the same time.
Humans are commonly known to have five primary senses: sight, hearing, taste, touching and smell, governed by five important organs: eyes, ears, tongue, skin and nose. Smell is often ignored , though, it plays an important role in our daily life without people noticing it. The purpose of my performance is to remind people to explore all their senses, be more aware of the surroundings and their own body. I developed new respects on objects that we see daily, and grew more appreciations of human nature.
Scent takes a much important position in animal’s world. People who have pets often notice that cats take long time to find biscuits near their face. It is because their sights are bad in short distance, and they rely on nose to locate food; in the wild, big cats spray urine to make their territory, average 300 square kilometers; in the water, a shark can sense one drop of blood in a million drops of water; dogs smells each others’ anus at the first time they meet, they only shut down their tails to hide their odour when they are scared or dominated. Human, instead, are trying to conceal body odour as much as they can. Being “smelly” is seen as rude and insanitary. Shampoos

Often, we do not realize just how important our taste and smell senses are to every day life. We go about our day and do the normal human thing. We sleep, eat, shower, get dressed, go to school, work, etc. What if our sense of taste and smell were taken away? How would it change these every day routines? If there were a house fire while we were sleeping and we could not smell the smoke, what would happen? What if we could not taste or smell the food we were eating? What if we could not smell if our bodies were clean when we showered? As a nurse, what if I could not smell a foul odor in regards to urine or

Body Envelope is an art piece by Nina Waisman that allows the spectator to use their own body as a tool for triggering animal, human, machine, cosmic, delicate, aggressive, articulate, and anomic sounds. These sounds are brought together into the spectator’s personal space to create the spirit of a tangible realm outside of our own. This piece was structured with suspended sensors that sketch the spectator’s body, creating this “body envelope”. Even the slightest bodily movement will set off the sensors and some sensors are harder to reach than others. The different heights and width space of the sensors allow for unique patterns of sounds with each visitor who steps into the piece.

Which worked for most of it un till I broke one of the rules of acting and made eye contact with a friend and the magic was gone and I froze like a deer in headlights after a second your

A famous american poet and civil right activist Maya Angelou once said, “ If you’re always trying to be normal you will never know how amazing you can be.” American jazz legend Duke Ellington said, “A problem is a chance for you to do your best.” I connect and agree with these statements because.
