Face-Mapping Video Turns Your Face Into A Creepy Screen

The video introducing this motion-tracking technology, which can project a moving image onto someone's face, is mesmerizingly creepy.

There are already some intriguing uses for it as a part of performance art, and the video is worth watching purely for its uniqueness and its precision, and for the other-worldly effect the technology creates on the actor's and the dancers' faces.

What makes it unsettling is not the projection itself but how well it tracks. A face stops reading as a face and starts reading as a surface, which is a strange thing to watch happen to a person in real time.
