So I went down a bit of a rabbit hole trying to understand the average face. I suppose it's very complicated - the way we recognize faces and process visual information. There's too much biological, psychological, etc. science stuff that is beyond me but I discovered this thing called a composite portrait where different faces are used to create an average. A lot of interesting stuff. I don't know if it's in the premium course but could you make a video or discuss the idea of the "average face" more?

Yeah it's not easy to do ... I'm a little turned off by how "make your own average face!" is tossed out there for people who might want to draw caricatures of people who aren't white male western europeans. As if it's easy.
