Although it is not a recently published story, I think it is very interesting as a case study. Gathering people's faces to tell a city and above all analyzing the ways they tell themselves as citizens. I see it as an in-depth and precise analysis that uses new media in a clear and open way. 

The data are obviously the heart of the project, in particular the photo-data, because often the photos themselves are data and I think that in this project they are self-explanatory. The story is more than interactive, the faces can be looked at but also analysed at the same time. Probably it is not a way to make a critical analysis of the government or of possible lies, but it certainly allows the user to look at other perspectives of a place.
