Our interns have created an interactive art exhibit that responds to the facial expressions of viewers. Once the camera captures their face, artificial intelligence identifies what emotion they’re feeling. Each exhibit then transforms its art based off of the emotion into something that is unique to each viewer.
This project, consisting of lead mentor, Dr. Hutson, and a team of student interns, has been a collaboration with the Palmer Lake Art Council (PLAC) for their annual Chautauqua gathering in August Thank you, PLAC, for your partnership with us on this project!
If you would like to sponsor an event to showcase this interactive art exhibit, please email us at enable@monumentalimpact.org.
If you want to donate funding towards this interactive art exhibit or future projects, please reach out or visit our Charity page directly.
