Self-Portrait Machine Forces You To Draw Yourself
GEARFUSE —
... The catch is that the user is actually the one that does all the drawing, as they are physically attached to the machine. The machine itself performs a little dutch rudder action, guiding the user’s hand along the page. If you’ve always wanted to be a talented portrait artist and never had a lick of talent, the Self-Portrait Machine not only allows you to draw, but damn well forces you to.

Gizmodo —
... It's sort of gimmicky now, sure, but imagine the next generation of this thing: instead of a picture as the source, it uses your brainwaves to put down whatever you're picturing in your head on paper. Who needs talent? [We Make Money Not Art] ...

... so instead they can rely on a machine to help them. No, it’s not going to make you a great artist per se, but it will force you to draw at least one really good picture.
This Self-Portrait Machine takes a picture of the person using it, and once they’ve strapped themselves in, it moves their arms back-and-forth to create a picture. It’s a little gimmicky, sure, but who wouldn’t want to be able to show off an awesome self-portrait that they drew?

... and could be horrible (like this one that shows how we human invent machines then put human inside to it to manufacture goods), The final object - A machine is a miniature of what I understand through the process of research, and the aim of the machine is to let people have a chance to feel the condensed process of how we generate our self identity from external point of view as from the society, which is a big machine we all in.

... intersection of philosophy... only it's not -- it's just a robot too lazy to make the portrait itself. See the video after the break.

Self-Portrait Machine helps you draw your own face
Gizmo Watch —
... now, Jen Hui Liao’s Self-Portrait Machine is here to help you sketch yourself. Any guesses how? Your hands are tied to the drawing robot, who after clicking your picture guides the hands (holding pencil of course) into drawing a realistic self-portrait of yourself. The bot’s been developed with an intention to enhance the man-machine relationship giving the human the ability to create his own personality identity. We have talents, but this one’s really amazing.
