The idea behind this is very simple. The mirror will not be a real mirror, but either an LCD monitor or a back projection with a tiny concealed camera mounted on top of it. I would put a frame around it, and maybe add a piece of plexiglass in front of the screen to make it look like a mirror.
 
 
When a person passes in front of the camera, a vector field will be generated based on his/her motion, which will then be used to warp the image in the mirror. When the application starts, the image will be Louie freaking out inside the mirror, but as people pass in front of it, what the camera sees will gradually replace him on screen.
