Making Lemonade: Design and Mortality in the Age of COVID-19
This panel conversation will examine some of the ways in which design can be used to mediate the topic of death and mortality. Designed objects that prompt conversations about post-death planning and contemporary designs that accommodate traditional Hindu rituals will be framed by intellectual perspectives on death from philosophy and sociology. We will explore how contemporary trends in end-of-life rituals are shifting, especially during the current pandemic.
Participants:
Mary Anne Beecher
Chairperson, The Ohio State University, Department of Design
Steve Brown
Associated Faculty, Department of Philosophy
Kim Lopez
Associated Faculty, Department of Sociology... sociological constructions of death
Ikkurthy Srivalli Pradeepthi and Dommu Krishna Chaitanya
Designers of contemporary crematoria in India/reinterpretations of Hindu rituals/practices. https://da-studios.com/da-studios
