About the Hereafter Institute
Gabriel Barcia-Colombo's Hereafter Institute offers participants the chance to plan their digital afterlife and learn about the artist's technological solutions for the preservation of the digital soul. The project is the culmination of Barcia-Colombo's work as a 2015 Art + Technology Lab grant recipient.
