the looking-glass self

Posted by Illuci (Hurdegaryp, Netherlands) on 16 May 2007 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

What is left when you only (want to) see yourself as you think others see you: it's not your self, only something mechanic, an artefact. (Free after Charles Horton Cooley). I first tried to take this picture without the camera in the middle, and use instead of "something mechanic" the word "nothing", but this appeared to be impossible. Do you know a method?
