STEALING UR FEELINGS

Meet the new AI that knows you better than you know yourself.
Stealing Ur Feelings is an augmented reality experience that reveals how your favorite apps can use facial emotion recognition technology to make decisions about your life, promote inequalities, and even destabilize American democracy. Using the AI techniques described in corporate patents, Stealing Ur Feelings learns your deepest secrets just by analyzing your face.
The project premiered on the internet on September 23, 2019.
It world premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival and was exhibited at the Tate Modern. It was profiled by the Museum of the Moving Image, Scientific American, Engadget, and many more; MIT selected it for inclusion in DocuBase, a curated database of people and projects transforming documentary in the digital age.
Stealing Ur Feelings is supported by a $50,000 prize from the NetGain partnership -- a collaboration between Mozilla, MacArthur Foundation, Ford Foundation, Knight Foundation, and the Open Society Foundations.
This project began life as an application for Mozilla's 2018 awards for art and advocacy exploring artificial intelligence. This repository is an open workspace. Check back often for updates!
