Can We Simulate the Dead? A Symposium on Technology, Grief, and the Afterlife
Swift Hall 3rd Floor Lecture Hall 1025 E 58th Street, Chicago, ILLaurie Zoloth, University of Chicago | Cassandra Sever | Paul Scherz, University of Notre Dame | Joseph E. Davis, University of Virginia
This symposium will bring together top scholars to discuss new advances in “grief-tech,” and will ask what disrupting conceptions of death through technology might mean for vital aspects of human self-understanding, mourning, care relationships, and the social order in which we are born, live, and pass away.
