there is a distict lack of information online about our current period style, however looking online at social media sites like instagram, tumblr, flicka, twitter facebook the selfie has become a huge trend.

as well as the "selfie" there seems to be a lot of digital art, where a very basic image taken with any camera is transformed with photoshop, digitally painting on top of the original image. these images are almost unreckognisable from the original.
