The Facebook CEO's depiction of his character in the game is not really frightening. If you took a look at that dead-eyed, Wii Mii-esque avatar and thought, "huh, I wonder what that face would look like on my face," then we have a treat for you: a haunting augmented reality mask filter of his vacant visage now exists.
What's the reason? It's because of the internet. It's because of chaos. Why not?
Matt Reed, a Nashville-based creative technologist and HoriZuck mask creator, said that he thought "Halloween" masks were top of mind after seeing a video about "things you missed in movies." I decided to see what a Zuck mask would look like after I saw MetaMark's awesomeHorizonavatar.
Reed admits that the mask is quite unnerving.
Reed thought of Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre when he realized it worked. I was not sure if the rest of the world should feel the same way.
The best application of the filters seems to be over real videos of Zucky. The founder's real face was covered with an augmented reality mask in a series of famous clips. Is that true? The chief metamate's believably-katana- wielding energy is captured by it.
Reed is happy to make people laugh.
The creative technologist said that it made people happy. I like my favorite thing.
