Changes and transformations of death rituals
Wednesday 14 May 2025, 7-8.30pm
Over time there have been shifts and changes in rituals around death and dying, with changes in cultural norms and new technologies changing our relationship with death. These transformations are seen across funeral practices through to how we perceive and handle death.
"I am a cultural anthropologist interested in death, Buddhism, and material culture in Australia and North-East Asia. My research spans new traditions and technologies of Buddhist death rites, the lifecycle of religious materials, and modern lifestyle movements. In sum, I study the stuff of death and death of stuff.
Alongside academic research and publishing, I create public programs to advocate for more equitable systems of deathcare for all."
