Video: Making of Eve Clone II

Making of Eve Clone II extracts a wire-framed image of the merged faces of Eve Clone and the “Vitruvian Man” from “Making of Eve Clone I”. This interactive installation learns to mimic human facial expressions through audience participation. When viewers stand in front of the mobile phone, they will be surprised to find that the facial expression of Eve Clone is exactly the same as their own expression on the mobile phone screen. It is to criticize how technologies become the sky eye and possess the desire to create artificial life with human emotions.
