The first smiley emoticon, consisting of a simple combination of characters, was created by computer scientist Scott Fahlman on September 19, 1982. He proposed using the symbols :-) and :-( in a post on a bulletin board at Carnegie Mellon University to differentiate between humorous and serious messages. This simple representation of a smiley face became a foundational element of digital communication.
