Abasi Rosborough FW2018 “UTOPIA/DYSTOPIA” was a commentary of the concurrent delights and detriments of technology around us. Models wearing facial recognition geometric maps reminded viewers of both the incredible technological achievement and the terrifying reality that a face can be studied, analyzed, identified, and processed. This commentary on the heels of iPhone X face key technology, itself a complex question of identity and ownership. The question posed to the audience is that of the meaning and value of mystery: How much power are we willing to give technology? Where do you draw the line between new tools and new constraints?
