Work Details

This artwork is beta version of the new ride arcade game. This artwork takes place in a box seat in a transportation facility or restaurant, and the scene unfolds as the player communicates with digital humans on the screen using your facial expressions. In order for this artwork to recognize your facial expressions, it is necessary to remove the mask you normally wear. In urban life, where we cannot escape the camera, the eye of the machine, and where our physical and mental state is randomly quantified, making excessive facial expressions will be a fitness for the future. It is not about creating a healthy body, but a body fit for technology.
