We live in a world in which cameras are everywhere, constantly watching us. These systems know a tremendous amount about us - but what do we know about them? How do you see me? is a way of looking back and trying to learn how this alien intelligence so attentive to our every move is structured, internally. In this work, Dewey-Hagborg utilized algorithms to generate self-portraits that are recognized as her face, although they look nothing like her, or like any human face. The abstract representation of "her face," is vastly different, even alien to human knowledge. And this also shows us that we should exercise extreme caution in handing control over to artificial intelligence, or automated systems, that we cannot intuitively relate to or understand.
