Brief description
The user is analyzed by a facial recognition software which is intentionally trained to recognize faces of a specific ethnicity (white people). In the demo video (see attached video) user 1 a Latino woman approaches the dispenser. Her face is not recognized by the software as a face hence she is denied access to the gums. Next "User 2" a white male is recognized by the software and is able to use the dispenser and get a gum. By using facial recognition to classify people by ethnicity the artists want to demonstrate how facial recognition easily oppresses populations. The "box" has been intentionally tuned to oppress different populations to observe user reactions.
