Random Musings III:
As those of you who've conversed with me (via PM, board messages, and e-mail) may know, I'm always looking for real-world and practical rationalisations for the more quirky aspects of the GI Joe designs. One of those quirky things is Zartan's Alice Cooper-esque face make-up. One of my early Zartan re-designs had the make-up as being inspired by
Kitsune Tadanobu's kabuki make-up pattern
(what with Zartan being a ninja-esque character and all with a flair for the theatrical).
Well, here's a better justification for that make-up. Adam Harvey, a member of the Interactive Telecommunications Program at New York University recently posted a number of face-paint patterns on his website that according to early experiments have been able to defeat current face-recognition software used by government and private security agencies. Here are the best face paint patterns for defeating face recognition software, which I've applied on a generic male head:
Anti-Face Detection Software Face Paint Patterns
Being unfamiliar with how face-recognition software works, I'm unsure as to what principles are at play here, but it seems to be the obscuration of the eyebrows and the cheekbones, as well as the introduction of asymmetry in 5 of the 7 patterns. Pretty neat, no?
