Face Transformer - At last!

I'd been looking for software that can change the apparent race/gender/age of a photographed face ever since I stumbled into the Future Face exhibition at the London Science Museum kidding myself that I was conducting coursework research.

After hours of searching I concluded that such a thing was not publicly available so you can imagine my surprise when, whilst trying to uncover who to reprimand for "borrowing" an image from my blog, I stumbled across exactly what I was looking for. Stephen may be a minor copyright thief (note: he did credit me after I complained) but his blog lead me to a tremendous website from St Andrews University which enables internet users to perform horrific but fascinating transformations on faces in minutes.

It's funny, I think this program is meant to work best with Caucasian faces. I uploaded a photo of my brother, who is Afro-Carribean, and all the photos just looked oddly distorted.

Those are almost all quite scary.

I haven't tried any non-caucasian faces but I can report that my distorted images of Kathrin, Kaitlin and Christian are shaping up quite nicely, ready for uploading tomorrow...
