On camera, six actresses each try to hold a smile for as long as they could, up to one and half hours. Each ongoing smile is scrutinized by a emotion recognition system and whenever the display of happiness fell below a certain threshold, an alarm alerted them to show more sincerity. The performance of sincerity is hard work. <img src="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/67-1.jpeg" width="670" height="436" width_o="670" height_o="436" src_o="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/67-1_o.jpeg" data-mid="22362882" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/40-1.jpeg" width="670" height="446" width_o="670" height_o="446" src_o="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/40-1_o.jpeg" data-mid="22362883" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/34_cheese_f.jpeg" width="670" height="90" width_o="670" height_o="90" src_o="http://payload97.cargocollective.com/1/7/229866/4243042/34_cheese_f_o.jpeg" data-mid="22362884" border="0" align="left"/> Programming: Sean Crowe, Pierre Moreels Software: Javier Movellan, Marni Bartlett, Gwen Ford Littlewort, Ian Fasel and Josh Susskind, The Machine Perception Laboratory at the University of California San Diego's Institute for Neural Computation Actresses: Melissa Berger, Lisa Centeno, Laura Clumeck, Natasha Desai, Tanna Fredrick, Kyra Locke, Susan Marshall, Cameo Cara Martine.
