The Selfie Museum

Selfies have become such an integral part of the digital landscape, as people on all types of social media platforms share them on a daily basis. In fact, it's gotten so big, that a museum, which typically serves to preserve important historical elements, was set up here in Kuala Lumpur, to commemorate the art of taking selfies. This however raises a few questions - are selfies just another fad bound to die out? Or do they have any real world impact? We caught up with Sean Tan, the founder of KL's Selfie Museum, where he delved into the museum's importance.
