NEW YORK—A new public art project opening in New York this week will let passersby put their faces on a skyscraper, Reuters reports. I in the Sky by Raul Vincent features a photo booth in Chashama Gallery on West 44th Street, off Times Square, where visitors can have a series of head shots taken. Those images will then turned into a flipbook-style animation and projected within 15 minutes of being taken onto a billboard atop the Conde Nast building at 4 Times Square. The animations also will be posted on the Web site of Durst Corporation, which owns the building and is donating the billboard space.
