RE: Genuinely Retro and Selfies

in #life6 years ago

Wow... looks so much like my (now deceased) auntie's bathroom at her apartment in Copenhagen, except the tile was pale yellow; clothesline, "telephone" shower; old fluorescent light... on the dark side; not updated since about 1955. Stayed that way till her death in 2007. Only thing different in hers would have been an old-fashioned rubber shower cap...

You do "selfies as art," so you get excluded from the equation... but aside from that, so many young people's lives exist (it seems) only with an endless stream of selfies as a point of reference. With a few exceptions... other people and places are oddly absent. Is so much self-referencing a good thing? Is it bad? I dunno....

It is a thin like to walk for me too, I know self portraits "sell" better, but it's not all I want to be and do. It's a constant struggle of trying to include different sides of life in order not to have the blog just mememememememe. I do want to show what I see, not just what I look like.
