The Mirrored Self:
Reflections of our Virtual Persona



Due Time
2023
Thesis
Mirrored Self delves into the evolving landscape of identity in the digital age, questioning how mediums shape self-representation. Focused on the human face as a symbol of expression, the project proposes a biometric defense mechanism, coded to protect users from identity limitations. This double skin fosters freedom of expression and encourages interpersonal dialogue, emphasizing touch as a unique form of communication. Ultimately, Mirrored Self aims to raise user awareness about digital constraints, empowering them to navigate their online presence. It serves as a forward-looking declaration, advocating for a balance between physical and digital realms through meaningful human interaction.
