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.
