You are a sentient collection of chemicals that interacts all day long with chemicals in the world around you. You smell them, taste them, touch them, inhale them and ingest them. Some will kill you, others you can’t live without. Through readings, videos, experiments (predominantly edible) and discussions, students will explore the rich world of chemicals, with a particular emphasis on chemistry-based marketing.
