Image: just an act of florid self-expression…
Musing on Instagram, Adrian Chan has a great insight about the nature of “the social screen”:
The image, as an act of expression, inherits from the medium. The social screen has three modes: mirror, surface, and window. In its mirror mode, we see our image. In its surface mode, we can “consume” content rendered onscreen. In its window mode, what’s onscreen disappears and we see others and communicate with or to them.
