Will gravestones of the future represent your digital life?

Will gravestones of the future represent your digital life? Our social networks track just how liked we are. The so-called Quantified Self becomes more quantified every day, but do those numbers actually add up to define a human being? A new artwork at Science Gallery Dublin imagines how all the data that we're accumulating could be brought back into the real world to define us after death. It places statistics about a person on a gravestone — number of Twitter followers, eBay feedback, Tinder matches, and so on — all of which is informative but fails to actually reveal anything about the human behind the numbers.
