After running a face recognition scan on my photos, the sheer number of persons that the software identified took me by surprise. There were also people that appeared in the background of the photographs, which I had never noticed, but now they were discovered, uncovered and exposed by the software. Even after limiting the images to recent years in Honolulu, there were many persons that I had never seen or met—and yet I was being asked to name them or optionally leave them classified as "The Unnamed or The Unknown."
Instead, I superimposed the unnamed and the unknowns to create a new set of faces—who now will never be named or known!
I was annoyed by the "social app" that was constantly asking me to name the faces that were detected on my computer. As a reaction, I superimposed these faces onto images of myself to create a new set of faces, who will now remain nameless forever.
These fun and rather bizarre depictions represent the interactions within my social circles in Chinatown, Honolulu.
