Buy, bye my X

'We prepare for the farewell of X (devices) that cannot be explained solely by the logic of capital or efficiency.'

Through the fictional funeral service company ‘Crash Funeral Services’, we commemorate devices that shared our daily lives and share our grief. We provide a space to share this sense of loss as a universal sorrow.

Tamagotchi, Adobe Flash, Internet Explorer—as countless software and hardware fade away, what is the nature of this inexplicable helplessness or sorrow? Why do we feel emotion at the death of inanimate objects? Together, we ponder what we can feel amidst the cycle of empty purchases and easily replaceable consumption.
