The city of sadness. Catchy.
According to a new project created by Somerset House for its Big Bang Data exhibition, selfies taken in London are the saddest in the world.
Compared to selfies taken Bangkok, New York, São Paolo, Moscow, and Berlin, the number of selfies rated as ‘not happy’ according to facial recognition software is significantly higher in London.
Londoners are around the average for other selfie stats, including keeping our mouths closed (that stiff upper lip doesn’t work quite as well for duckface).
