Head Games: A Photo Essay

By projecting video images onto modeled surfaces, Richard Gans creates three-dimensional animated faces that appear real. Gans is the first artist-in-residence at the Digital Media Center for the Arts. Using his patented technology, which he calls the Life Imaging Projection System, Gans created a "talking" Dr. Doolittle for a Peabody Museum display (below left). He demonstrated the technology's other possibilities on March 21 in a presentation titled "Talking Heads." Photos by Michael Marsland.
