Not simulation for its own sake.
The digital afterlife raises difficult emotional and ethical questions. Eternal Gardens approaches it through consent, visibility control, family stewardship, and a design language that emphasizes memory rather than spectacle.
Memorial spaces with structure.
In Memoriam, public or family-only archives, and published stories make it possible to preserve someone’s voice and presence in ways that remain intentional and reviewable.
Useful beyond memorialization.
The same infrastructure also serves living legacy work: preserving your own voice, values, and history before loss occurs, so the future has more than fragments to inherit.
