A while back, a Japanese guy name Dyske Suematsu contacted me about using some of my photographs for a little cultural experiment he’s set up called All Look Same?, a site which tests people to see whether they can distinguish Japanese, Chinese and Korean faces, places, and art, among other things. An interesting question – some people can claim that they can tell the difference, others insist that it’s not possible. I’ve always been of the mind that most of the time it is possible, but there are always cases where you get surprised. But then again, I am constantly mistaken for being Chinese or Japanese by native Chinese and Japanese people, so I guess I am could be one of those ambiguous types. Anyway, think you’re up to the task? Take the test and find out…
Yeah, I sucked. Inversely amazing was what the site said – as in, it was amazing that I could be so bad. What does that say about me?
Sending much love…
