Narcissus (2022)

interactive installation and code, 00:28 min documentation; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q06_nH3pGNw

This interactive installation visualizes the morality of decentering ourselves and the abstract blur of identity while looking at our mobile phones. While we watch ourselves blur, having less privacy and dealing with lack of transparency, we are simultaneously facing (capitalistic) programmed algorithms, data extraction and mass surveillance. The longer we are looking at our phones, the more we must consider its environmental and social cost. While the screened image gets sharp and clear by looking in the installation's direct environment, are we and our actions too? I am questioning phone usage by eye detection and interactive screened face pixilation.
