Conjoined seeks to explore the power of our sense of smell by fostering stronger connections between individuals. This device delves into the future of human connectivity by exploring how our scent can enhance existing relationships. The device aims to investigate the effects of pheromones in our breath and how these may bring friends closer to one another. The question being posed is whether individuals with similar scents and synchronicity will bond more easily, or whether this will lead to a form of rejection.

The concept of pheromones and the impact they have on human behavior has long been studied, but Conjoined takes this research to a new level by examining the potential of these chemical signals on social interactions, offering a unique perspective on the role of scent in shaping human relationships.
