Do I know you?

Faceless Composition by Lara Fairie
I found this test for face-blindness last night. My boyfriend and I were discussing the topic because we've both suspected that he has this condition for a while now. True to it's name, face-blindness is an impairment in one's ability to perceive, and thus recognize, faces. When he informed me yesterday evening that his new haircut made it difficult for him to recognize himself in the mirror, I thought it was high time to put our theory to the test.

It only took about 20 minutes to do and proved extremely interesting (well, it did to me anyway, but I live for this shit). Our results were hilariously different, and went a long way in confirming our suspicions. If anyone out there is as into the nerdy enjoyment I got from seeing these results, or perhaps just wants to know if a history of "not remembering" people has a reason, I'd suggest checking it out!


Feel free to share any results :)

    so me and trey just checked out the test and *together* we made a 96% score (!)

    ...not sure how we would make out separately, but at least I know together we stand a chance ;-)

    sweet! no face blindness for you guys :)

    poor chris got in the 60%'s .... he kept trying to remember the outline of people's heads.

    hilarious! and all these years i thought he was too busy thinking in binary to notice people - hehe.
