LO & Final Project

I’ve been recently interested in the text-based gaming revival started by Porpentine. Porpentine created this platform called Twine where anyone is able to create their own text-based video game (some examples http://aliendovecote.com/intfic.html). The game borders an immersion of story/plot and contemporary poetic elements.

After thinking about this, I was inspired to create a sort of facial simplification via prose by creating a software that would recognize elements of your face (level of eyebrows, face structure, expression, facial direction, colour of shirt below face). The data would then give the participant a small snippet of prose based upon these elements.
