Thanks to Nobumichi Asai it is now possible to ‘hack’ your own face, similar to his previous project ‘Omote’. Asai is part scientist part artist who has applied the skills he learned at the science department of Tohoku University in Japan to film making. In the short video below we see realtime face tracking and three-dimensional projection mapping. In other words, a computer projects images on human faces that move while the projections respond to the way the faces move. The possibilities are endless, and those who saw Richard Linklater’s 2006 dystopian film ‘A Scanner Darkly‘ will remember the ‘scramble suit’ that grants anonymity to its wearers by projection different images over it.
