Eyes on Ida Nowhere basement: DAS weekend took place in the
end of January at Ida Nowhere in Berlin, Neukölln.
Part of the game was an installation of Andi Guntermann in the basement.
A computer-driven-highend-software-detector recognized the
visitors´ faces and threw them on the wall (no, not the visitors).
About 10000 faces detected during
three days of Digital Arts and Sound weekend *
The sourcecode of the program looked like this:
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.
getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) {
GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j];
GraphicsConfiguration[] gc =
gd.getConfigurations();
for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) {
Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds();
int xoffs = gcBounds.x;
int yoffs = gcBounds.y;
int w = gcBounds.width;
int h = gcBounds.height;
if (j==1 && i == 0) {
washFaceFrame = new WashFaceFrame(gs[j].getDefaultConfiguration(),xoffs,yoffs, w, h);
}
}
}
this.setUndecorated(true);
this.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
this.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
For anlog usage black stripes of paper were available to protect your privacy in real world.
All collected faces were shown on a wall of recycling-paper.
Fun for the whole family!
How will our kids look like? Faces were mixed up in the flatscreen picture.

System Requirements:
2,0 GiHz, 512 MBy, Java, JMF, Open-CV, webcam, computer, beamer, flatscreen, time.
* Only privacy protected pictures of size 100x100px were kept on disk for the future
(plus one face-washed bigger jpg). All other files were destroyed during the run.
