The “Ugly” FilterUAL Creative Computing Institute 2024

An interactive AR face filter built in Meta Spark that distorts users' faces to reflect conventionally "unattractive" features, then asks: do you feel worth less?
To delve deeper, the filter was applied to high-fashion ads, featuring models that are the face of said luxury brands. “Publishing” the filtered images in a magazine alongside captions examining the notion of whether beauty should dictate a person's worth.
