Reverse Perspective Distortion Portraits with a Giant Lens

When people are taking portraits, perspective is something they take for granted. But could we remove or even reverse it? And how would that look like? I've built a giant hypercentric camera with a Fresnel lens that allows to take portraits with a reversed perspective. The farther away, the larger these objects appear. Your head starts to deform and your ears are bigger than your nose. More info can be found in the blog post: https://volzo.de/thing/reverseperspec...
