This project aims to understand the role of mobile media in grief rituals as a reflection of our social and cultural lives. Grief is an important cultural practice which is crucial in recovery from loss and developing resilience. As magnified by the pandemic, mobile media rituals—from Instagram memorials to witnessing mass death and online funerals—play a significant role in contemporary grieving processes. Through ethnographic inquiry, social media analysis and creative practice intervention, expected outcomes will include codesigned media-in-grief literacy frameworks, online resources and socially-engaged art exhibition. Benefits for understanding grief-in-media include building public empathy, connection and resilience.

该项目旨在了解移动媒体在悲痛仪式中的作用，以反映我们的社会和文化生活。悲伤是一种重要的文化习俗，对于从损失中恢复和发展复原力至关重要。正如大流行所放大的那样，移动媒体的仪式--从Instagram悼念到见证大规模死亡和在线葬礼--在当代的哀悼过程中发挥着重要作用。通过人种学调查、社交媒体分析和创造性做法干预，预期成果将包括共同设计的悲痛中媒体扫盲框架、在线资源和社会参与的艺术展览。理解媒体悲痛的好处包括建立公众的同理心、联系和韧性。
