What will you look
like 10 years from now? What if you had been born a member of a
different race or another gender? You can see for yourself in the
lobby of the Floyd & Kathleen Cailloux Campus Activity Center
Jan. 21-25, when Schreiner University’s
Student Activities
Board brings The Human Race
Machine to campus.
The HRM is a
multimedia computer console with four programs that work with a
person’s face: aging, race, combining a couple and facial anomalies.
The aging program is the same technology used by law enforcement in
looking for missing persons. |

Nancy Burson, an
artist and pioneer in morphing technology, developed HRM to
demonstrate that characteristics such as age and race are
superficial. “There’s only one race, the human one,” Burson says on
her Web site (www.nancyburson.com/human_fr.html).
“The Human Race machine is a powerful diversity tool,” said Jennifer
Hudson-Velazquez, director of student activities and Greek life at
Schreiner.
The Human Race Machine installation will be open to the public 4-9
p.m., Monday through Friday. For more information or to arrange a
group visit, contact Hudson-Velazquez at 830-792-7283 or by e-mail
