We seek to initially investigate the present everyday practices of the selfie which, amidst the mediations of digital devices, are incorporated into a contemporary culture of interaction, sharing and communication. This approach is related to the philosophical anthropology developed by Bruno Latour (2012b) and to the theory of spheres by Peter Sloterdijk (2011). We have conducted empirical research on current practices of the selfie, based on interviews with people used to take pictures with smartphones. If thought of as a practice, the selfie displays its complexity, its various experiences of faciality in a multiplication and widespread dissemination of images.Downloads
