Digital Legacy Prototype

Slide 7

How Digital Legacies Show Up

The prototype points to four recurring themes in the literature, and the flowchart image captures the tension between memory, inheritance, and control after death.

Key themes

  • Digital legacies as manifestations of identity.
  • Ways people engage with digital legacies.
  • Practices for, and implications of, putting digital legacies to rest.
  • Integrating technology into offline legacy practices.

The original note asked for this to expand into a flow chart and surface which parts are most relevant in practice.
