About this Event
Mourning in the Metaverse: The experience of grief in the digital age.
In an era where digital spaces intersect with our emotional lives, grief finds new expressions within the digital landscape. As we navigate loss, isolation, and mortality, virtual platforms become a refuge for those seeking solace – but can also create dangers for the bereaved. This presentation delves into the unique experiences of grieving individuals in the digital age, exploring how avatars, anonymity, and online communities redefine mourning. Join us as we explore the intersection of technology, and collective mourning.
