A snapshot of a place at a moment in time

Istanbul based photographer Mike Mike is working on an open source web based project called the Face of Tomorrow. His idea is that if you could make a composite of all the faces in a city right now you would be looking at the Face of Tomorrow.

In each city, he takes 100 photos of people in one specific location, divide them into male and female and from these makes a composite face to create a prototypical citizen of a place at a moment in time or at some point in the future when notions of race and individuality are less important (let’s hope so, Mike!)

As the Face of Tomorrow is an open source project, anyone can send in 100 photos for Mike to composite the face of that city or place.
