ETERNAL US
Eternal Us is a speculative product and service that reimagines how we relate to death, memory, and the afterlife in the age of artificial intelligence. Based on an individual’s digital footprint, it offers a new form of immortality, a way to communicate with the deceased, blurring the line between memory, presence, and simulation.
The project envisions a near-future scenario in which AI technologies give rise to emotional and responsive digital representations of those who have passed. The portable device functions as a portal, enabling users to connect with different individuals through a personal pod that serves as an access key to activate a chosen presence.
Light plays a central role in the experience: it flickers softly, like the rhythm of a breath, suggesting a subtle, almost living presence.
As both a memorial object and a responsive interface, Eternal Us extends and challenges traditional spiritual beliefs, raising questions about how technology might mediate grief, preserve identity, and reshape our understanding of permanence.
