KuKKuut-kollektiivin syyskausi alkaa kuoleman kahvilalla 🍂🍄🟫 🍁 Teemana on luonto ja kuolema. Luonnossa elämän kiertokulku on luonnollista – miksi me ihmiset vierastamme kuolemaa? Kuolemankahvila ei ole sururyhmä tai terapia, vaan tila avoimelle turvalliselle puheelle. Kaikki tervetulleita!

Back from the Midnight Sun Film Festival in Sodankylä. If I ruled the world everyone would have to go. A week of 24h daylight & films that rummage through emotional cupboards you thought were shut. So you flow from one feeling to the next, reminded that they all pass. My favourite? Love by Haugerud

Preparing for Friday’s Death Cafe (welcome if you’re in Helsinki!) on technology and AI around and after death, and this pod is super interesting! We have no established practice for the rights of the dead, but questions of consent e.g. building digital avatars of those we’ve lost are no doubt next
