Chosen Spot is a two-person interactive ‘camera’ that exposes how self-presentation is shaped by another's attention. One person looking at their reflection in the mirror and decide the moment to capture. The other person looking at the live feedback on the screen, using joystick to select one part of this selfie to be colored. The result is a selfie shaped by two people: one who presents, one who decides what matters.
