“What is this stupid feature?” “There are people starving around the world and they are making little animated faces?”  “What a waste of time!” These are just a small sampling of the comments I heard while the new Animojis were demoed at Apple's fall iPhone announcement. Some people may agree with that, and it may look like a silly or frivolous little feature, but I think it’s an impressive demonstration of the progress technology, as well as an exciting new beginning of a whole new range of creative expression and art that we are only beginning to see.
