The Beautiful Face of AI

Valerie Wolf Gang

“The Beautiful Face of AI” project continues the artists exploration of the relation and influence between the society and the individual, which is built upon several layers of identity and self awareness. The digital mirror shows the reflection of the viewer, however their image begins to slowly change with regards to the current state of the world. To change the parameters it uses information such as the current stock indexes, cryptocurrency values, the temperature of the environment, current global population, sea level, etc. All of these large databases influence the reflection of the individual live and co-construct the identity of the individual. The parameters of actual world-happenings thus influence the form and the organic shaping of the face and the viewer’s thoughts slowly start changing the surface of the skin. In front of the eyes of the viewer, the mirror generates a new image, which is a composition of the real physical world, the reshaping and the view of the society online which co-creates our final image.
