In certain locations, video cameras can track you everywhere. Artist Leo Selvaggio doesnt think thatll go away, so hes proposing a way around it: a single mask of a human face that anyone can wear if they dont want to be identified. Selvaggio is creating a full prosthetic and a simple paper mask that both feature a replica of his own face, making it so that wearers of the mask will be identified as him by automated recognition software. Selvaggio is running an Indiegogo campaign to fund the masks, which are part of a project titled URME Surveillance (pronounced as a slurring of youre me — an apt description of the project).
