Our devices bear witness to the intimate, affective, embodied, and collective ways we mourn in, and through, contemporary media. In \u003ci\u003eMourning on Mobile Media\u003c\/i\u003e, Larissa Hjorth aims to understand the role of mobile media mourning rituals as a reflection of our lives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs disasters, pandemics, and war become more commonplace in and through mobile devices as affective witnesses, how can we learn from mourning practices as a reflection of contemporary media culture? The author argues that through these micronarratives—from eulogies about lost kin to more existential elegies about a loss of habit—we can connect, enhance kinship, and create hope in response to the overwhelming sense of crisis we face today.","brand":"The MIT Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46626416623871,"sku":"9780262553551","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780262553551_s600x595.jpg?v=1775597060","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780262553551","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
