Installed at the NYC Resistor Interactive Show, Blind Self Portrait is a collaborative project from Matt Mets and Kyle McDonald, inviting guests to take a seat, close their eyes and draw their self portrait drawn. Without vision, a machine moves the individual’s hand to draw a self portrait, as having tracked the visitor’s face, it generates a wonderful, one-line drawing. Hopefully Matt and Kyle’s amazing little project gets picked up for a worldwide tour.
