'Senses' Part 1 - When the senses collide

He describes how rather than being individual senses that never affect one another, stimulus of one sensory type can alter the perception of other sensory experiences. He describes how this has a multitude of applications and his work with chefs, retailers and car manufacturers to optimise and alter our experiences and environments.
