Everyone asks
“People keep asking what this is. Okay.”
Vertical 9:16 handheld selfie video, close-up, phone held at arm's length. A 22-year-old Nigerian-British man with short twists, a thin silver chain, an oversized forest-green sweatshirt and headphones around his neck, at a university library study table in the afternoon, notebooks and a laptop around him. He holds his phone up beside his face with its back to the lens so we can see, stuck to it, a slim matte sand-coloured magnetic battery pack, then taps it twice with one finger and raises his eyebrows. Handheld, slight push-in. Soft afternoon daylight from tall windows, shot on iPhone front camera, natural skin texture, unpolished. He whispers: "People keep asking what this is. Okay."
