Another installation in the Is Technology Eating my Brain? exhibition, the Slicing Photobooth is a self-portrait machine inspired from mix and match children books. The visitors can include their portraits in a database where they are cut in 5 horizontal slices, stored in 5 folders (head, torso, hips, legs, feet). At a press of a button, 5 random slices are collected and assembled on the screen.

The Slicing Photobooth works with a Raspberry Pi and Picam HD video camera. The program was written fast and well in Python by Vagmakr.
