Julius von Bismarck, Benjamin Maus, Richard Wilhelmer
Lindau, Bodensee, 2010




Public Face II (the Fühlometer) is an eight meter high smiley made out of steel and neon tubes, installed on a lighthouse, showing the present emotions of the citizens of Lindau.
The sculpture was part of the exhibition "PROVINZ", that took place in Lindau in August 2010.
Public Face II is based on Public Face I, that was realized 2007 in Berlin. The sculpture is able to display the emotions of the citizens, because it uses a algorithm developed by the Frauhenhofer Istitute, that analyzes the human emotion visually based on facial expressions.
