      abstract = {With the rise of the smart phone and social media, cameras  have become ubiquitous, infiltrating nearly every aspect of  social life. The glowing camera screen is the lens through  which many of us communicate our experience. But our  thinking about photography has been slow to catch up; this  major fixture of everyday life is still often treated in  the terms of art or journalism. The author, a social  theorist, develops bold new ways of understanding  photography in the age of social media now that many new  kinds of image have emerged: the selfie, the faux-vintage  photo, the self-destructing image, the food photo. These  new visual forms - and the devices and platforms that  facilitate them - have remade the world and our  understanding of ourselves within it.},
