| Description | A “selfie” refers to a picture you take of yourself alone or with other people usually with a cell phone camera and often with the purpose of sharing it on social media. Internet culture researchers, Theresa Senft and Nancy Baym in their now-famous article titled “What Does the Selfie Say? Investigating a Global Phenomenon,” identify the selfie as both an object and a practice with the capacity for complex and nuanced communication. According to them, a selfie is a “photographic object that initiates the transmission of human feeling in the form of a relationship…A selfie is also a practice—a gesture that can send (and is often intended to send) different messages to different individuals, communities, and audiences” (p. 1589).
