Biography

A practice at the intersection of perception, culture and education.

Antonio Simone is the author of “Il Profumo del Sé” and the founder of the cultural and educational project bearing the same name.

His public-facing research considers smell as both a biological and symbolic threshold through which to examine memory, behaviour, identity and presence in the digital age.

He is an educator and Bio-Natural Disciplines practitioner. He is currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree programme in Psychological Sciences and Techniques (Italian degree class L‑24), with expected completion in 2027.

His ongoing university studies support his exploration of perceptual, cognitive, attentional and social processes within his editorial and educational projects. This work remains non-clinical and attentive to professional boundaries.
