Digital Desires #9: Grieving Online

We post about our travels, frustrations and cats on our social media accounts. We also post about lost, regrets and deaths, but does grief have a place in the digital world? On this episode of Digital Desires, a show exploring the intersection of technology and intimacy, Night School’s Ahmad Fuad Rahmat and clinical psychologist Vizla Kumaresan explore how we articulate our loss online, and whether social media is changing the way we grieve.

Produced by: Chua Ern Teck
