Oeil Complex

[Here's an interesting interactive piece by French artist Frederic Durieu (the image below is just a screenshot). Reminds me a bit of the Tony Oursler pieces where he projected film loops of blinking eyes -- some with infections, some crying, but mostly deadpan -- onto white globes of different sizes suspended from the ceiling -- one of my great New York art experiences.]

More of his stuff can be found here. I highly recommend the Autoportrait -- better than the Mattisse and Picasso self-portraits you've been seeing splattered on subway cars all over New York.
