I read about Green Dot in Neural.it and felt curious. "GreenDot is a research project that investigates motion capture, pattern recognition, and "Intrinsic Biometrics" techniques to detect and analyze human movement signatures in video." I went to the website and it's fascinating because they compare the movements of different presidents and how some of them have bigger amount of movement in the lower third of the screen, some of them the middle.. Then I started thinking they might even know what's more effective in terms of building credibility. Maybe I'm going too far but very often you wonder why presidents that talk so much bullshit are so popular. And of course there is a lot of communication that is taking place besides the speech, through body language. I found this tool fascinating and scary because it allows to enter an obscure terrain and systematise it.
