This was the piece we saw in Brighton. It was a number of screens hanging from the ceiling with a projecter showing videos of peoples faces that responded to peoples faces.
Most screens had a camera attached to the side of it, these cameras read the viewers face and 'understood' the emotion being shown then responded to it. The way this was crafted was by filming a persons face displaying a number of emotions, then the camera was attached so when a viewer had a strong look on their face, the facial recognition software on the camera would know to mirror the emotion by displaying the filmed persons version of that emotion.
For the most part, this piece didn't work but the idea of showing people all these clear emotions could have had an effect on some people.
