Today I'm finishing this set from the Kontinuum multimedia show that occupied a future LRT station here in Ottawa beneath the core this summer.
After leaving the station platforms, a wall was the final stop of the exhibit. Taking the card you scanned of yourself at the beginning of the exhibition, you scanned the barcode into readers at the base. Your digital counterpart would appear on the wall above in a flourish of colours and lights. This includes yours truly, looking the part of Yul Brynner.
This last shot of me is from another visit, when I decided to go with that song suggestion and wear sunglasses at night. Yes, for the record, any attempt at a smile from me automatically defaults to a smirk.
Very cool portraits though I think Yul Brynner was known to occasionally smile. ;-)
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea with digital portraits. You are in matrix :-)
ReplyDeleteImpressive.
ReplyDelete...great colors!
ReplyDeleteNice to know I"m not the only one with what I call a "Mona Lisa" syndrome. My smiles don't quite look like smiles, either.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday,
