Why did we develop Faces iMake HD ?



Faces iMake HD is an app we have been developing for the last 9 months. And now it’s out in the wild. Being a man it’s hard to imagine delivering a baby,
And maybe the comparison is not so suitable because it is after all only an app.

But it is ?

What does it mean Faces iMake ?
What does it mean and open end game?
Why not putting it into a known structure? Why give the opportunity of
Making everything from everything and not limit it to what we know –
Here is a mouth, there is an eye etc.

Because we wanted to show that in life there are always opportunities and choices.

Being a dad to 2 girls (9,5) brings a lot of opportunities in discovering many roads in their education, being, possibilities in the world and so much more that an app can be one of the tools to achieve that.

My girls go to a democratic school, which is sort of a progressive school.
We look at our parenthood as a road that we take together with our kids.
One of the roads in this amazing “job” of being a parent is to show them that in life there is always a possibility of a different solution then what we know.
A whole new world can be seen by looking at a problem as a challenge and not as a block or a showstopper.

They always have the choice and always responsible for their choices.

This is Faces iMake in a nutshell.

It’s about developing your right side of the brain.

My eldest Lia can see things in a very specific way because she already has her opinions, judgments, how things should be or shouldn’t
My youngest Emma still sees all the possibilities with no judgment and no plan.

Playing Faces iMake on the iPad allows Lia to express herself and the way she feels and see things in her own unique way without concerning of how it looks and what her friends will say, because there is no right or wrong.

I never new how to draw. Or maybe I did but someone told me that I’m drawing out of lines, that it’s just a scribble or I myself compered my art to the more creative kids in class and decided that it’s not for me.

Using Faces iMake brings back the creativity in my life.
Playing the App allows the whole family to express what we think is a face, what our room can look like or just a random object placing that can be anything that we want.

I’m so glad that I met Hanoch Piven the artist and got exposed to such an incredible world that is all around us all the time, but with Hanoch’s unique way of thinking and looking at the world, I’m able to see that there is another world out there.
A whole new mind is being used while playing with Faces iMake.
