[Jonathan Schroeder]

Ok, it looks like the discussion has ended. Thanks to everyone who participated, and thanks to Derek Murray for inviting me to moderate.  For those who are interested, Mehita Iqani and my paper has just been published online: "#selfie: digital self-portraits as commodity form and consumption practice" http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10253866.2015.1116784


Best wishes for the holidays.

Jonathan Schroeder

I think that the study of selfies offer an interesting window into how something becomes an object for scholarly attention, as we can watch a body of work emerge, including conferences, journal articles and special issues, and groups, such as the Selfies Research Network on Facebook.  What is clear is that selfies have seized the imagination of scholars as well as users. What is less clear is how scholarship and thinking about selfies will develop and 'mature'.
