An example of a highly valued food is the avocado which is an important bonding icon in semantic domains from veganism, clean eating, keto/low-carb eating, ethical/sustainable eating to fitness. Discourse about food choices is an important site for revealing syndromes of values that characterise the ideological positions that are embedded in everyday life. This paper explores how ideological positions associated with food are construed multimodally in Instagram posts produced by everyday social media users. This digital aesthetic of the everyday, we believe, is one of essential experiences that shape our existence in the age of social networks. Through social media photography practices, we experience the extraordinariness of the ordinary in everyday life through a shared subject position in the ‘perpetual now’. We argue that the curatorial practices of digital scrapbooking create a form of aesthetic experience-the aesthetics of the everyday, both for the creator and viewers.We call this phenomenon ambient aesthetics to highlight the social nature of the digital aesthetic experience, that is, a collective aesthetic experience shared by all social media users, and created through collective participation in social media practices, whether as a producer, viewer, and/or curator of digital photography.

In particular, we look at how technological affordances of social media platforms, such as reposting and scrolling functions, facilitate the creation of a unique form of semiotic artefact-curated visual blogs.

In this paper, we explore the semiotic dimension of digital scrapbooking.
