Greg Borenstein; Homunculus

from; ideas for dozens

"Homunculus is a video self-portrait that explores facial expressions and physical performance. In it, I use the position of my body to puppet a 3D model of my own head. Each limb is mapped to a particular part of the face that plays a role in determining the emotional expressiveness of a facial expression: my hands control my brows, my knees control the corners of my mouth, etc."

Pareidoloop

from: philip mccarthy’s weblog
"Pareidoloop is a toy that makes images that approximate human faces. It starts by generating random polygons, feeding them into a computer vision face detection algorithm, and then continuing to add more polygons to increase the face detector’s “confidence” score."
