I assume the relationship with Turin and Burr is fraught. It would be difficult for Chandler, a scent journalist, to make much use of Turin who both knows more about scent and is a better writer than Burr. Since he writes for the NYTimes, it is likely that Burr has a more commanding knowledge of the NYC subway system than Turin so when they put together a series on scents of the underground, Burr will really come into his own. Until then, Burr is going to come out looking the worse any time the two are together.Originally Posted by HORNS 
I appreciate Burr's efforts, like with the "Untitled Series" and this exhibit, but wish he'd utilize Luca Turin for Turin's expansive knowledge as well as his gift of prose.
I haven't been to the exhibit, but I think this conversation as well as what I've thought about Burr before is similar to my memories of the great professors and teachers I've had in the past, compared to the average ones I've been through.
