    Wonderful interview. Truly fascinating individual and photography. He did look exhausted though, so I hope he has recovered from all his activity.

    'Pillar' is a phenomenal achievement, but poor bloke, he looks drained from the relentlessness of project after project.

    While it's true that sounds, smells, and emotions can't be "photographed" in the traditional sense, contemporary art and technology have provided innovative ways to capture and represent these sensory experiences expecially in times of poshumanism.
    Sound, for example, can be visualized through spectrograms or waveforms, which translate acoustic information into a visual format. Bioacoustic research uses these visualizations to document ecosystem health, allowing us to see soundscapes and understand their complexity.
    Smells can also be recorded in an abstract form. Olfactory art, for instance, captures the essence of an environment by distilling and presenting scents as sensory "portraits." Methods like gas chromatography allow us to visualize the chemical makeup of smells.
    Emotions are perhaps the most subjective, yet photographers and artists regularly use symbolism, composition, and color to convey complex emotional states. The interpretation of these visual cues can evoke feelings as powerfully as experiencing the emotions themselves.
    Thus, while the literal act of photographing these intangible elements may not be possible, our ability to creatively represent and translate them through other mediums brings us remarkably close to capturing their essence.
