    Abstract

    15 seconds of fame is an interactive installation that every 15 seconds generates a new pop-art portrait of a randomly selected viewer. The installation was inspired by Andy Warhol’s ironical statement that “in the future everybody will be famous for 15 minutes.” The installation detects human faces and crops them from the wide-angle view of people standing before the installation. Pop-art portraits are then generated by applying randomly selected filters to a randomly chosen face from the audience. These portraits are then shown in 15-second intervals on the flat-panel computer monitor, which is framed as a painting. The video was made during the first public exhibition of the installation at the 8th International Festival of Computer Arts in Maribor, 2002. On the video appear the authors of the installation: Franc Solina (idea), Peter Peer, Borut Batagelj and Samo Juvan (realization).
