» Write a reflection (100−200 words) after creating the “snapshot portrait” of your digital identity: does this profile glimpse seem/feel like me, as a representation of your activity? (or a separate identity?) Perhaps elaborate your conclusion, thinking of yourself being categorized by institutions or in a database…
Include an idea/term/quote from Rettberg chapter 5–6: note your new perspective, about digital identity concerning technology and culture. Also, perhaps look ahead to Project 3 and consider what of this mediated experience (in snapshot) you might now include in your Screen Self Portrait.
→ also as warm-up to project 3, include one media form (any type) that expresses your subjective sense (feeling, attitude, mood, emotion) of the snapshot portrait.
