Virtual Girlfriend
A sort of odd art experiment from an NYU student: a virtual—albeit 2D— girlfriend. A far cry from the virtual lovers David Levy has prophesied for us, this woman is merely a projection on a bed sheet that responds to movement sensors. When you turn, she moves, among a variety of other (clean) positions.
I honestly don’t know what to think of this, other than I don’t see any viable application for this.
Oh, wait, sure: porn. Wait, no.
Heh.
