The Website (before I forget):SELFIECITY
Investigating the style of self-portraits (selfies) in five cities across the world.
Selfiecity investigates selfies using a mix of theoretic, artistic and quantitative methods:
- We present our findings about the demographics of people taking selfies, their poses and expressions.
- Rich media visualizations (imageplots) assemble thousands of photos to reveal interesting patterns.
- The interactive selfiexploratory allows you to navigate the whole set of 3200 photos.
- Finally, theoretical essays discuss selfies in the history of photography, the functions of images in social media, and methods and dataset.
