"Reviving 1990's Digital Dress-Up Dolls with Smooch" by Libby Horacek (Strange Loop 2022)
The Kisekae Set System or KiSS is an open specification for digital dress-up dolls created in 1991 and expanded throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. Artists created thousands of KiSS dolls over the twenty years it was in active use. It includes a custom image format, a domain-specific scripting language, and a wide array of viewers and editing tools. In this talk, we'll take a deep dive into how KiSS works and how we can revive this dead format using JavaScript and Haskell.
