Project description
With the aid of special software and a camera, each static viewer (who is standing in front of the mirror for more than 2 seconds) is detected. The produced electronic impulse moves the counter by one unit. Each visitor contributes to the development of the art work, but also can see how many other people have looked in the mirror.
