Photofit, invented by Jacques Penry, was used by Scotland Yard in 1970 to make suspect portraits. “The kits come in wooden boxes, containing narrow paper strips with various facial features and an index listing the contents: eyes, noses, mouths, haircuts, chins, roughly 40 in each category. There are transparencies for add-ons, such as glasses, facial hairs or wrinkles, and a frame on which the individual parts can be assembled.” Giles Revell, Matt Willey & Philip Oltermann invited a number of people to assemble their own Photofit self-portrait. The result is this brilliant project. See the full project here.
