Photographer Examines The Face of “Immersion”

See the look on that kid’s face? It’s a look that says one of two things. “Man I really gotta go to the bathroom” is one of them. The other one is “Oooh I am stalking behind you and am going to knife you” during a COD4 match.
Unless you game with a mirror in front of your face, you probably aren’t familiar with what you look like when you’re playing something. “Immersion”, a new video gallery from The New York Times Magazine, does that for us, just with one key difference: it’s about kids.Photographer Robbie Cooper took a group of preteens (and maybe pre-pre teens), gave them games like GTA IV and COD4, and recorded their faces as they played.
The results are kind of eerie (watch how straight-faced one kid deadpans “how do you like bullets” as he scores a kill), alarming, and extremely fascinating.

I thought that the girl that never changed her expression was pretty darn funny.

“Come back here and let me stab you!” That guys was funny…
I sure hope I dont move my mouth that much while playing games. Most of them looked like they where really thirsty.
