GustaCine: Towards Designing a Gustatory Cinematic Experience

In this pictorial, we describe the design and making of GustaCine, an engaging crossmodal cinematic experience that allows the viewer to experience and savor cinematic moments through the gustatory pleasures of the different flavored popcorn. Our aim behind creating GustaCine is to explore possibilities in designing food experiences that 'move' in parallel with the moving picture. We articulate our making process enumerating the challenges in creating a gustatory experience and undertaken strategies to resolve them. Ultimately, we aim to inspire and guide future research on gustatory cinematic experiences.
