Notes
- The term "selfie" corresponds to a late process of identifying a set of photo or video reflexive practices, related to the emergence of an aesthetic of subjectivity. Exploring the articulation between autonomy of shooting and participation in the action, as well as the take-off produced by conversational uses, this article shows that a media controversy triggered this phenomena. In 2013, the denunciation of the narcissistic character of self-representation or disrespect of values and norms presents the selfie as a subculture. This condemnation leads to a response of adhering to a gesture then identified as an impertinent and progressive signature. Vector of its promotion, the controversy consecrated the selfie as a cultural form, and imposes it as the photographic practice most representative of contemporary visual expression.
