Unravel the Code VI - The Face Of Things
The face is a valuable feature—in corporeal terms, but also as extracted data. In an age where facial recognition and machine learning are being designed into everyday objects, new forms of interactions are being written over our face. What will it mean when our ‘things’ begin to identify who we are, speculate on how we are feeling, what we desire, and grant or deny access based on what face that we present? Could these developments lead to a more compelling way to craft materials, objects, or environments with empathy? Or will we face a discord when our hybrid things only magnify existing patterns of bias?
On the Face of Things is the 6th Unravel the Code International Workshop where Unravel the Code students of the Maryland Institute College of Art meet face to face with Digital Craft students of the Willem De Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. Through a three day exchange and 12 hour prototyping marathon, the students craft ideas and make materials that interface with the face.

Workshop Projects
Group 1 - Anthropomaterials
What if a crafted material could show its true face and react in reciprocity to yours? This group of students explore how to animate the inanimate to and how materials might move to human emotions.

Awkward FaceTime
| 5/10 - 11/10 | Bits of Rotterdam - bits of Baltimore - through the magic of the internet |
|---|---|
| time and date student arranged | MICA and WDKA minor students try to sustain a 5 min awkward conversation, knowing that it will make the week much smoother knowing at least one partner student on a face to face basis. See below for pairing. There is a strict format for this talk, which can be found here. |
FaceTime Format
To identify your FaceTime partner, please sign up for one of the four projects (as participant 1-6) and contact the corresponding student (i.e if your #1 in Its Complicated on the MICA list, find out who is #1 on the Its Complicated WDKA list. (I know, its a bit complicated).
MICA and Digital Craft Minor students plan a 5 min Skype/Hangout/Facetime meeting to discuss the following:
- share a love/hate about your current program (of course no bad talking about UTC ;)
- share an anecdote on radio (your secret extra-sensory electromagnetic perception, what the car radio's double function was when you four, or the time killed it on NPR's sunday puzzle)
- share a memorable photograph of your past that fits under the title “ the moment I knew what I wanted to do”.
The purpose of this pre-meeting is to have the first exchange to be on a peer to peer basis and break the ice before the marathon begins.
