equivalence of forms

This just in! Import a photograph into a program, and the program would contort the body (within standard physical limitations, of course) to try and match that shape. Are the other qualities of an object that could be emulated. Optionally, matching points could be marked. Whether human balance should be factored in to the calculation could be a user option. Side by side view of photograph and human form would be simple. Once run, the form could animate, twisting into the final pose. A sexually ambiguous model, such as the wooden ones used for figure drawing, would make sense. Though observing the difference between male and female balance/physical capacity as it relates to matching shapes would be interesting, as well. Also, instead of matching an image, the user could make some 2D or 3D sketch, perhaps dropping and dragging points and edges, or building with blocks (polygons), for the program to try to imitate. Would this be more or less abstract than literal pictures?
