Focusing on the ways Touch is practised in everyday social interactions serves as a basis for how Touch is understood as multiply significant ? physically, emotionally, intellectually and politically. Andreallo initiates a map of the fundamentals of Touch and how they can be considered for future research in considering digitally networked cultures. This map also serves as a basis for closely examining selfies and memes. Examining social networks of Touch, Andreallo focuses on a specific example of the PrettyGirlsUglyFaces meme and ugly selfies(uglies). Through this example, memes and selfies are mapped as Touch involving textures of both intimacy and violence. Andreallo also discusses technological seamlessness and cultural semefulness as conversations of social relationships of Touch, and proposes the term semeful sociabilities to describe how the everyday technological self engages in practices of Touch. This book is a compact, approachable insight into selfies and memes as everyday culturally networked Touch relationships that also offers a way forward in recognising technological relationships as culturally meaningful. 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aInternet$xSocial aspects 606 $aMemes 606 $aSelfies (Photography) 606 $aMedia studies$2bicssc 606 $aFilm, TV & radio$2bicssc 606 $aPopular culture$2bicssc 610 $aSelfies 610 $aMemes 610 $aPretty Girl Ugly Face meme 610 $aSocial media 610 $aSemiotics 610 $aCommunication through touch 610 $aPhotography 610 $aVisual communication 610 $aSocial Semiotics 610 $aDigital intimacies 610 $aHuman-technology relationships 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aInternet$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aMemes. 615 0$aSelfies (Photography) 615 7$aMedia studies 615 7$aFilm, TV & radio 615 7$aPopular culture 676 $a302.231 676 $a302.231 700 $aAndreallo$b Fiona$01256250 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910574855903321 996 $aMapping Selfies and Memes As Touch$92912154 997 $aUNINA
