surveillance and how this is all playing out when it comes to alt. the eyes of the state in cities across china being in a public space means being under the watchful eye of surveillance cameras here each individual's identity is captured with facial recognition software totally controlled for many it's a dystopian nightmare. but could this also happen to us last year a test run for facial recognition software was carried out of the train station in the south in the federal police wanted to know this software could recognize $300.00 volunteers who moved about within view with the cameras the hit rate was 70 percent that pilot project was the inspiration for good conrad's documentary film face it to begin with because it is a digitalization of the face is an incredible encroachments on us as people and

digital flow of cash out whether to corporations or government agencies is stoppable. but face it doesn't limit itself to the pros and cons of facial recognition it also looks at how. a few years ago jim an artist you listen bismarck mounted a book called public face the giant smiley changed its expression based on estimates of the city's new. jasmyne the big smiley has a moving eyes and mouth because it's kind of built to mimic the way algorithms read faces goodman that's what we want these dolls mean that people become aware of their own faces no longer private. faces just the viewer to stay vigilant and ask what the future of facial recognition holds what exactly is happening without us how and whether it can ever be deleted 6.
