===== Portrait Id =====

(Original working title: Portrait Domain)

{{:project:portraitdomain-2015-02-28-111208.jpg}}

This is a concept for an gamified social media platform / art installation aiming to explore alternate identity, reflect on the usurping of privacy through facial recognition technology, and make use of historic digitized photographs in the Public Domain to recreate personas from the past. Since the [[event:2015-02|#glamhack]] event where this project started, we have developed an offline installation which uses Augmented Reality to explore the portraits.
