Selficity Goal
Selfiecity as a project wanted to see the effect social media has on the world, and how all people of all different cities around the world take selfies. More specifically, “Investigating the style of self-portraits (selfies) in five cities across the world.” They wanted to see how different cultures, genders, and ages take selfies to see the difference but similarities within us all over the world.
DH Goal
One digital humanities goal is publishing. Publishing data, projects, ideas etc. with all different kinds of data collecting and studying. This goal is to release and showcase any finds and discoveries made within this study.
Aligning Goals
Aligning both goals from DH and Selfiecity both include wanting to publish data. Given that both fields can be involved with media and humanities, there is constantly projects, findings, and even just statements to be published. Selfiecity’s project goals can align with the goals of digital humanities.
