Face blindness

You do not control this film.

This Psycho-schizo/Horror/Comedy was entered to the Warwick Shootout competition 07.

Dr Sam Becket leaps into the body of a 20 year old english student who suffers from a rare neurological condition called prosopagnosia

I have face blindness (prosopagnosia). I have greater difficulty in recognizing faces of people until I get to know them, especially when they are out of context and I have not seen them for awhile.

Meeting YouTubers sucks. They always screw with me because of my Alzheimer’s. How am I supposed to keep track of a bunch of young white people that all wear green shirts? They all start to look alike after a while. Except for that mouth ring chick in the beginning. Her name is momodelicious.

Thanks to TheMightyThor1212 (who is the wedding crasher of YouTube gatherings) for giving me the names here:

P.S. I don’t really have Alzheimer’s. It’s called prosopagnosia (sometimes known as face blindness) — a disorder of face perception where the ability to recognize faces is impaired, while the ability to recognize other objects may be relatively intact. The term usually refers to a condition following acute brain damage, but mine is a congenital form of the disorder. Most of my brain damage has resulted in insanity not this disease.

Prosopagnosia (also known as facial agnosia or face blindness) is difficulty or inability to recognize faces. Although I don’t have this problem with every face, this does happen to me frequently and it makes me feel very guilty, and embarrassed… oops, sowweee!

Short film which gives a brief explanation of prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness. This condition can occur alongside autism occasionally. It has degrees of severity.

The Hour’s Hilary Doyle examines the condition known has Faceblindness, or Prosopagnosia.

Episode two of a two-part BBC-4 special program hosted by neurologist V.S. Ramachandran that explains his key findings in certain instances of brain damage that have long been viewed as mere curiosities by the scientific community. This episode focuses on prosopagnosia, the Capgras delusion, and temporal lobe epilepsy.

My apologies for the audio being slightly off, the black bar at the bottom of the video, as well as the temporary video defects; this was the only copy of the video I could find.

This is Part 3 of 5.

FacelessFelix silently reads his copy of New Scientist. This video refers to an article (Cover heading: “Do I know you? Living in a world without faces”) which appeared in New Scientist in the issue of 25th November 2006. The article, entitled “Hello Strangers”, deals with prosopagnosia, a neurological condition which prevents those afflicted from recognising faces – even those of people whom they have been seeing regularly for years. It’s like visiting YouTube, where you have never seen most of the faces before – but this time it is your daily life.
