In this lecture performance, artist Chris Dupuis scrolls through Facebook, looking at profiles of friends who have passed away, discussing how they died, and what meaning can be taken from their online afterlives.

DEAD PEOPLE ARE LIKING THINGS ON FACEBOOK
The after life has a new channel.
Presented as a dry, informative lecture, “Dead People Are Liking Things On Facebook” is much more than its flippant title suggests. After a crude opening joke Chris Dupuis gets down to business, and he is all business. Scrolling through social media feeds to tell the stories of passed friends who live on in the internet cloud sounds like macabre fun, and in an odd voyeuristic way it is, but it also provides an engrossing, developing, perpetual forum of remembrance that has a life of its own. For all the dirt that is dished at social media, there are unintended silver linings that develop quite organically. A unique, clever, powerful and thought-provoking presentation that lingers long past its hour run.
