How sight awakens scent and sound

Triggering the Senses
Cherished family photos are highly effective triggers for sensory memory synchronization. Looking at a photo of a childhood Thanksgiving can instantly make your brain synthesize the smell of roasting turkey or the sound of a relative's laugh. The visual cue of the photograph acts as a master key, unlocking dormant neural pathways associated with your other senses.
