ABSTRACT

We conclude with reflections on notions of implicatedness and the production of subjectivities connected to some of the epistemological commitments needed to immerse oneself in digital ecologies and accepting, even while negotiating, the terms of engagement that social media platforms structure into their constraints. In outlining a series of what we understand as epistemological shifts in photography, both image-making and viewing, manifested through practices of digital display, we theorize the semiotization processes of selfies, as well as the imaging of images.
