They are extensions of us. In an era where information is the most valuable commodity on the planet, our phones know us better than we know ourselves. Social media apps hypnotize us with an endless scroll of beautiful people and posts targeted at us by an algorithm. All while collecting our data — recording our personalities, our memories, the way we look and sound. The very fiber of our being. We have given big data permission to own our faces... to own us. But what happens when the lines between reality and idealized "perfection" become blurred?
