In most people’s minds (especially from the perspective
of Chinese people), things related to death are regarded
as taboo and bad luck. This project investigates end-of-
life interactions that would make death look and sound
so different, if only they could happen. This may be an
opportunity for people to be more open-minded about
deat.
The project involved the collection, classification and visualisation of people’s final words, culminating in a special concept book called The Book of Last Words. The aim is to remind people to look at death with a more optimistic and open attitude.
