Taking the self out of selfie – most pictures not about vanity, says study

The act of taking your own digital photographs is welcomed by various things such as empowerment, despair, narcissism, art, feminism, anti-feminism, destruction to dolphins.

But obviously new research on subtle self portrait media has led to the most strange conclusion: they are only a part of daily life.

Analysis of more than 5000 selfies in Australia concluded that they are "not just vanity" and 90% are "not released for self-propagation"

Researchers at the Australian National University Business Economics Department have evaluated randomly chosen selfies within 10 days posted to Instagram and found that their sole purpose is to improve on-line It was. Note

"This is neither narcissism nor self-empowerment, people use selfies as a tool as part of everyday life," he said.

The researchers stated that the findings are questioning self-portrait is vanity and the idea that seven "different kinds" images emerge from the data set.

The most popular (35%) is "autobiographical self-portrait", which records the climax and trough of life from graduation to wedding ceremony and "simple and not boring". The other 6% is used as "travel diary"

"Romantic self-taken" celebrates with important people. In the ratio of 21%, "self portrait that celebrates singles after the recent dissolution is included"

"Mimic Selfie" (12%) entertains social media trends and current media events, "Coffee Book Selfie" (9%) is artistic, usually photographs of digital manipulation.

Self-service self portrait (7%) will introduce specific knowledge fields such as meals, fitness, beauty, etc., along with educational and emotional information in many cases.

"Self-portrait" self-portrait, Eagar says it is more accurate as a small business owner and wishes to recommend their online followers or pay for "Insta-fame"

"These are perceptions of people's lifestyles, their own recognition, they like the currency of the deal and they obey - the goal is to build an audience and build reputation or praise for social media" .

This trend is due to marketers being attributed to social media "influencers" to encourage sales of their products rather than the support of traditional celebrities, she said

"This is a business exchange like small business activities, they are advertising, very cautious, planned, clearly ambitious."

However, most of the self-portraits being published are mere visual records of everyday life, shared directly between self and the subject, shared by their friends, family members and believers.

Self-timer is more than just selfie. This is a real deal: All men need to do more selfies. Yes, they need it. That is because it is very good for them. Self-timer is not just a virtual action. This is not a selfish, silly thousand year hobby. Self-timer is the latest self-portrait attempt, including Van Gogh's bandage ears. (Yes, I just put a self-taken at the same level as Van Gogh's masterpiece, treat it.) So please let me clarify that: men need to take more self-taking. It needs to be like Van Gogh. Let's capture our emotions. Let's face it: Most people want to deal with it or even want to fully understand their emotions. Self-timer helps to solve this problem

We are full of selfies. They are called "portraits", but they are exaggerated a little, but self portrait is their self portrait. Self-timer is a picture taken by myself, probably a mobile phone with a camera. Due to what is easy to make, they produce amazingly strong reactions whether they are love or dislike. Let your hands love self-love self-love, digital generation and breath anxiety. As with all trends, when excitement and novelty disappear, action disappears. At the same time, parents need to be careful: the more you hate them, the more your child wishes.

How do you take pictures? Self-timer forgotten by phone is really strange. In the era when self-shooting sticks and front camera HD are sufficient to reveal all pores, self-portrait capability occupies the self-love picture category. On this trip, I was really surprised at the photo that was supporting iPhone 6. I would say that I am very good at finding the most suitable earth specimen for this purpose. But after all, if you are too busy accepting photos and you can not take pictures, heaven is not allowed. As hot spring water swallows, a refreshing stimulus to spread your fingers with glacial spill will make your whole body relax and enjoy. You will not see a picture.
