"DE-RECOGNIZED SELFIES as ART" - Douglas Coupland's program at the Amory Show was to "de-recognize photographic portraiture" self-portraits or otherwise!
When we all look in the mirror, we look differently than when we see our image in a photograph. Selfies are changing this phenomenon. Today with smart-phone technology we are seeing so many photos of ourselves that we are actually re-wiring our brains to recognize and understand what we look like to the rest of the world.
