Introduction: What's so Special About Faces? Visages at the Crossroad Between Philosophy, Semiotics and Cognition.

The author also highlights a qualitative difference between MetaHuman faces and previous artificial faces. We all have a face, see faces, and live in an environment where face representations abound and play several roles. Since neuroscientific evidence suggests that our visual system is biased towa...

      ab: The author also highlights a qualitative difference between MetaHuman faces and previous artificial faces. We all have a face, see faces, and live in an environment where face representations abound and play several roles. Since neuroscientific evidence suggests that our visual system is biased toward the left part of the visual field, the author predicts that self-portraits could be more emotionally expressive than portraits, because painters too could be looking more at the right part of the face while making portraits, whereas in self-portraits the left half of their face would be reflected in their left visual field, in the mirror they would use to paint. Now, despite the prominence of faces both in our everyday social life and in experimental psychology, philosophers have paid surprisingly scant attention to the properties at play in face perception (with few exceptions like Block [3] and Newen [14]).
