This sorts the wheat from the chaff.
Takes about seven minutes so if you’re at work you’ll need to power down triple-hard afterwards to make up for lost time.

Take it up with Birkbeck and whoever made your handheld device.
What are you trying to access it on? A calculator?

That bit where the faces get all distorted with the pixelated colours creeped me out a bit tbh

Then I saw her face. Now I’m uncertain. A little trace of doubt in my mind.

Quite good which is a relief because if you tell me your name I will not remember it.
I don’t have 7 minutes to waste at work today, I’m afraid. Apart from on the dump I’m currently having. Oh, and making a couple of cups of tea. And maybe catching up on the cricket.

I think I get around poor face recognition by relying on things like hairstyle and height and gait and stuff, but also, as you say, context.
If someone’s had a haircut and is in a place I don’t normally recognise them then they’re probably getting blanked.

Pretty good at recognising peoples boat race ( thats right I am cockney what of it?)
Same, faces are pretty much useless for me recognising most people.

93% - whoop what do I win (apart from probably helping build a sinister Cambridge Analytica styled Nazi robot). Not helpful info given that I always go on about being rubbish at recognising people.
But are you a super recogniser?
