Abstract:

  • This panel addresses the role of the face in contemporary interface culture and how electronic art may help us understand the cultural and computational techniques related to its interpretation, production, and cultural significance? Through four short presentations this panel discusses how the face becomes an operation in the interface, and how this reconfigures the meaning of the face.
