Face Your Pockets

TUE, 26 JUN 2007

I bumped into this site this morning, faceyourpockets.com, basically it asks you to empty your pockets; arrange your stuff on a scanner, and lastly place your face and scan it.

I thought it’s silly, but when I look at the scans from the others, I was really impressed by the creativity shown, now I think it’s fun and artistic too.

So the child in be rebelled, and this is what I got before I even realized it. I know it’s silly, but it’s fun. Check out the others too.

List of objects scanned:

  • IKEA paper ruler, used it when I moved house, but forgot to clear it.
  • Some coins.
  • iPod Shuffle
  • My namecard
  • A $2 note from my wallet, with the coins, probably for lunch later.
  • Keys
  • BookJetty namecard
  • EZLink smartcard
  • Restaurant receipt, last weekend bill, dinner treat for my aunt, auncle and cousin.
  • Handphone
  • Pen
  • Part of my face

So what’s in your pockets? :D


Things that are living in the pockets of your bag, jeans or jacket: travel and pay checks, old cigarette pack that just looks interesting, sugar lumps and all the stuff that has found home in your pockets. They are all the treasures our project is looking for! Our goal is not only bring all this objects into light but show the owner of them.
