Selfies

Do you have twin brothers?
I don't. so I made some. These are both me... Errr. half of me.
 The Blue image is two copies of the left side of my face. The right image, is two copies of the right side of my face. Why would I do such a dumb thing?


While the two photos seem like a foolish prank, they have a use. I wanted to see if google and other facial recognition software would correctly identify these two artificial people. It turns out it is never fooled by such tom-foolery.
