This work results from the systematic observation of a population with microcephaly, with a high incidence in the Brazilian Northeast. We verified that microcephalic patients are located in a sociocultural instance informed mainly by audiovisuals, which is evident in the frequent recurrence of the expression "civilization of the image". In this context, we perceive that audiovisual media culture produces a representation of microcephaly carriers through cliché and preconception, which results in stigmatization, formation of negative affects, self-esteem demotion and identity crisis on the part of these individuals. In this way, qualitative research try to contribute to the affirmative exercise of a "communicative action", which contributes to the elevation of self-esteem, subjectivity and social inclusion of the individuals. So we start from the hypothesis that, depending on the "ways of using" the selfie, this can have a favorable repercussion. And in this direction, we find a "prototype of an smart mirror" to facilitate the self-portraits of people with special needs, or by their caregivers. In short, our object is the selfie of disabled people modeled by the equipment of the "smart mirror."
