We are kind programmed to make snap judgements about people, to classify them and quickly extrapolate from low information. I guess that pattern detecting/creating algorythm served us very well in the past, its just a shame that we have to fight our lowly origins on the daily.

You photograph somebody far away and they are simplified into maybe 100 boxes of colour. The closer you get the more pixels you get to describe the reality. Just gotta hope people can revise their low resolution perceptions.
