Weathering Smile
What is my body to a machine?
A set of irregular pulses, weird sounds, tangled organs inside curvedly molded skin.
A set unpredictable behavior patterns, strange chemistries.
A symmetrical smile is a signifier for the machine to understand happiness on a human face.
A symmetrical smile is designed onto robotic faces to infuse them with emotional intelligence.
