Tasked with developing a social network for 5 years into the future, we built a concept that would allow users to virtually connect with historic figures and loved ones that have passed on. Utilizing data collection systems to build virtual personalities, the network would also be capable of collecting data from existing users to create their own virtual personalities once they have passed on. The vision of this concept centered around possibly creating a new perspective surrounding death by allowing life to continue virtually after physical life has ended.

FROM
EXPERIENCE
Family and friends have to go through the
whole process of planning the funeral for
their loved one
high emotional stress of not knowing what
Besides the financial burden, there is the
the deceased would have wanted for their
funeral
Online resources like Afternote.com,
afterSteps or departing.com allow users to
plan their funeral in advance.
Websites and Apps send out messages and
pictures to friends and family after the user
dies
Funerals are not considered a “no-go“ topic
anymore, there will be more and more
planning by the individual in advance
More self-directed, individualized funerals
SYSTEM
Physical
Offline
More and more people use online services and
social networks to connect with people and to
express their feelings, thoughts and interests
People want to decide for themselves what
happens after they die
Online life or hybrid networks will be pre-
sent in all aspects of our lives
TECHNOLOGY
Funerals: Old-fashioned funeral homes,
that handle everything from planning the
funeral itself, contacting the priest if asked
for, to the type of burial, to handling the
family and friends
financial and legal affairs and comforting
Digital networks: Have started to add after-
death settings to allow the user to decide
what is going to happen to all his data
Traditional funeral practices
Diverse, cultural focused types of funeral
Traditional ways of coping with grief
Globalization in all aspects of life
chemistry of our emotions
More and more studies about grieving, the
Cultural borders decrease, funerals are not
bound to one tradition anymore
a person‘s feelings
Scientific findings are used to ‘manipulate’
Online networks of funeral homes where peo-
ple can connect with their funeral home and
plan everything themselves
Digital networks are increasing their after-
death options
The question ‘what happens with all the digital
data after someone dies?‘ is becoming incre-
asingly important as the internet generation
gets older
Using voice and audio in social networks
Artificial Intelligence and Digital Immortality
Companies are going to start using data
of deceased people (by accident or on
purpose)
chines will predict the user‘s behavior
User profiles are getting analyzed and ma-
a deceased person. Augmented reality
Artificial intelligence can be used to ‘stimulate’
takes over our lives
Brains can become digital data and we can
live on forever

BLUR: INTRODUCTION VIDEO
Life is short,
Life is also about being connected.
What if you could build
relationships in a virtual space with
people who have passed on.
In a network that would keep you
endlessly connected.
Introducing Blur. A social network
that invites you, friends, and family
to continue your legacy without a
time limit.
So stop worrying about your short
time on earth.
It can be endless. Blur. Life made limitless.
You could geek out with Steve
Jobs, learn how to sing with Whit-
ney Houston, or date Marilyn
Monroe.
But most importantly... Life is
about living.
What if you too could live past your biological time clock in a
virtual space?
but that's about to change. So what is life really about? Amazing individuals from the past
like Albert Einstein, Martin Luther
King Jr., and Coco Chanel.
Life is about being inspired. So..
What if you could interact with
people that inspire you the most?

BRANDING: WHO ARE WE? We are passionate about facilitating connections
