A class room exercise to extract the most pronounced feature in a human face.

A standalone key that sums up a whole!

PROJE C T BRIEF

The aim of the project was to identify, sketch and sculpt the most distinguished features of the chosen person we admire or desire.

Our brain is an incredibly agile machine, and it's hard to think of anything it does more effectively than recognise faces.

Just hours after birth newborns are drawn to face like patterns.

An adult brain knows it's seeing a face within 100 milliseconds, and it takes just over a second to realize that two different pictures of a face, even if they are lit or rotated in a very different manner, belong to the same person.

Neuroscientists now believe that there may be a specific region of brain, on fusiform gyrus of the temporal lobe, dedicated to facial recognition.

WHY FA C IAL FORMS ?

Faces are all built almost alike: two eyes above a nose that’s above a mouth, the features varying from person to person generally by mere millimeters. So what our brains look for, according to vision scientists, are the outlying features; those characteristics that deviate most from the ideal face we carry around in our heads, the running average of every visage we’ve ever seen. We code each new face we encounter not in absolute terms but in the several ways it differs markedly from the mean. In other words, to beat what vision scientists call the homogeneity problem, we accentuate what’s most important for recognition and largely ignore what isn’t.

Instant insight is precisely what is required to draw inspiration, th emiraculus thing is about being able to zero in on th most distinctive aspect of sombody.

That is how we know who the person is from basic shapes.
