GREENING FACE: HOW FACIAL EXPRESSION IS MADE SENSIBLE, FROM PRE-CHRISTIAN ARCHITECTURAL SPACES TO POST-DIGITAL SMART ENVIRONMENTS
GREENING FACE: HOW FACIAL EXPRESSION IS MADE SENSIBLE, FROM PRE-CHRISTIAN ARCHITECTURAL SPACES TO POST-DIGITAL SMART ENVIRONMENTS

Summary/Abstract: After the many algorithmic, computational, and digital turns over the last five decades, the ways in which we experience and understand the face as something in and of the environment appear to be fundamentally shifting. Indeed, today more and more corporations, institutions, and governments are using automated facial recognition systems within smart environments for abstracting data capital from facial behavior. Through a post-digital perspective, the author explores a history of ideas about the face in relation to its environment across the artistic, scientific and technologic imaginaries, both constants from the past and changes of the present.
