Make An Average Face [image processing demo]

Interestingly, the average of not-so-good-looking people is pretty good-looking.

Looking more into details the set of pictures, none is really cute and there is a lot of people with pretty strange, asymmetric faces. They look kind of retouched, no?

Heres what they all look like together:

…cool how it does look perfectly average, you cant say "he has nice X" or "his X is Y", its just a human face.

Here's a website where you can make your own facial composites. It only lets you morph two images at a time, but you can morph the output of a morph, thereby combining more than two faces.

Just hover your mouse over a lot of them are random rapidly, and you'll see a pretty nice effect.

interesting but in genetics, nature takes the best AND the worst features
