Yes, I have evidence of Life After Death and I was able to take a picture of it! And Life post mortem seems to be pretty good. Excellent literature, love, music, dancing. I wonder if they get to eat....
Performance by Joan Morey, "POSTMORTEM. Pour en finir avec le jugement de dieu" (2006-2007). Reenactment by Sònia Gómez programmed within the framework of the exhibition "COLLAPSE. Desiring machine, working machine", Centre d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona - Fabra i Coats, 27 September 2018. Photo: Noemi Jariod. Courtesy the artist.
Each of the six programmed performance reenactments is extracted from its original context as studies or scenes from earlier projects and given an independent life. These live-action fragments encompass ritualistic exercises following the artist’s rules, tableaux vivants, and dramatic orations based on texts by the artist or by playwrights such as Samuel Beckett. Whenever possible the performances maintain their original interpreters, yet inevitably they are reinforced or degraded through their repetition, adding another layer to the artist’s exploration of control.
POSTMORTEM. Pour en finir avec le jugement de dieu
[POSTMORTEM: To Have Done with the Judgment of God] 2006–2007
Fragment from panel 7 of "POSTMORTEM. Project in Seven Tableaux" (2006–2007). The performance uses the radio poem "To Have Done with the Judgment of God" (1947) by Antonin Artaud, with a duration of 23 min 49 s, as its choreographic score. The first performance of this piece for a single
female performer took place as a part of "POSTMORTEM". It was repeated as a part of later projects with either a female or male performer.
Made inert as an individual by the skin-tight garment that
covers her entire body, the performer becomes a crawling and indeterminate body-thing that emits vocal expressions. She is literally burdened by a device that only amplifies Artaud’s constant evocation of the voice as a kind of excrement and his palpable obsession with the misery of existence.

Since the late 1990s, Joan Morey (Mallorca, 1972) has produced an expansive body of live events, videos, installations, sound and graphic works, that has explored the intersection of theatre, cinema, philosophy, sexuality, and subjectivity. Morey’s work both critiques and embodies one of the most thorny and far-reaching aspects of human consciousness and behaviour – how we relate ourselves to others, as the oppressed or the oppressor. This central preoccupation with the exercise of power and authority seemingly accounts for the black and ominous tenor of his art.
COLLAPSE encompasses three parts. The first is presented over two floors of the Contemporary Art Centre of Barcelona - Fabra i Coats. ‘Desiring machine, Working machine’ is a survey of ten projects from the last fifteen years of the artist’s work. An exhibition display based around vitrines and video screens deployed as if sarcophagi or reliquaries, is presented alongside a continuous programme of audio works and a schedule of live performance extracts.
The second part of COLLAPSE takes place at the Centre d’Art Tecla Sala, L’Hospitalet de Llobregat (23 November 2018–13 January 2019) and is the definitive version of the touring exhibition ‘Social Body’.
Titled ‘Schizophrenic Machine’, the third and final part of the project comprises a major new performance event which will take place on January 10, 2019 at an especially resonant – yet, for the moment, deliberately undisclosed – location in Barcelona, where live action will be integrated within the longer narrative of the site’s physical and discursive past.
COLLAPSE is curated by Latitudes.

Since I like old Victorian pictures, especially postmortem photography a lot, I tried it for my sweet dolls.
On December 11 2019, Lorenzo Redaelli discussed his strategy for turning concepts into playable prototypes for the students of the Master of Arts in Game Design at IULM University. The event took place at Cascina Moncucco during GAME CONTEXTS, one of the Program’s core courses.
How can you design a successful video game without prior game design experience? Lorenzo Radaelli, an alumnus of the M.A. in Game Design at IULM, discusses his design philosophy through a detailed postmortem of Milky Way Prince: The Vampire Star, a first-person interactive visual novel about an abusive relationship between two individuals, one of whom suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder. A love/erotic story between a guy and a “shooting star” that follows players’ decisions, Milky Way Prince suggests that falling in love with somebody who suffers from BPD is like falling in love with a star. What did Lorenzo learn from this process? And what are the take away ideas for aspiring game designers? The journey from zero to game is full of challenges, failures, and surprises.
Lorenzo Redaelli received his M.A. in Game Design in October 2019 from IULM University. He also received a B.A. in Communication, Media, and Advertising in 2017 with a Thesis titled “Gojira vs. Godzilla; How Hollywood reinvented Japanese Kaiju movies" from the same school. Among his passions are Japanese culture, art, and interactive storytelling. He directed several animated shorts, shot an independent film, and produced two albums. In 2019, his final project, Milky Way Prince: The Vampire Star, was accepted at several international festivals, including Game On: El arte en juego (Buenos Aires, Argentina) and Game Happens (Genoa, Italy). Lorenzo lives and works in Milan.

For my Cruel & Tender A2 level project I am looking into Victorian Post-Mortem Photography. This is the first shoot of the topic based around the 'Sleeping Beauty' photographs where the deceased would be placed as though they were only sleeping.

I promised my sister that I would scatter her ashes along paths in her favorite nature reserve. She died last month (January 2025). I kept my promise.

तस्वीरों में देखें : दुनिया के सबसे प्रसिद्ध बाघ का पोस्टमार्टम
भोपाल.यदि आप मध्य प्रदेश को बाघों की सैरगाह मानते हैं तो एक बार फिर से सोच लें। क्योंकि, अब मध्य प्रदेश वाकई बाघों के सुरक्षित नहीं रह गया है। बांधवगढ़ टाइगर रिजर्व में एक बाघ की मौत ने एक बार फिर से पार्क प्रशासन के साथ सरकार की नियत पर भी सवाल खड़ा कर दिए हैं।
दुनिया के सबसे प्रसिद्ध बाघों में शुमार बी2 अब इस दुनिया में नहीं रहा। रविवार को पार्क प्रबंधन के कर्मचारियों द्वारा शिफ्टिंग के दौरान बी2 बाघ की मौत हो गई। यह वही बाघ था, जिसने न सिर्फ बांधवगढ़ को बल्कि मध्य प्रदेश को भी इंटरनेशनल लेवल पर ख्याति दिलाई। इस बाघ को लेकर कई फिल्में बन चुकी हैं, जिसे डिस्कवरी और नेशनल जियोग्राफी जैसे चैनलों पर लगातार दिखाया जाता है।
14 साल 7 महीने का बी2 का मुख्य क्षेत्र बाधंवगढ़ किले के नीचे वाला क्षेत्र था लेकिन कई बार वहां नए बाघ आ जाने के कारण वह लगातार अपना क्षेत्र बदलता रहा। उसके माता-पिता भी इंटरनेशनल लेवल पर काफी फेमस था। मां सीता और पिता का नाम चार्जर था। सीता का कुछ साल पहले ही शिकार हो गया था जबकि चार्जर घायल अवस्था में दम तोड़ दिया था। लेकिन रविवार को बी2 मौत की आगोश में चला गया। आशंका जताई जा रही है कि बाघ को बेहोशी की दवा की अधिक डोज दिए जाने के कारण संभवत: बाघ की मौत हुई।
रविवार को पार्क के कर्मचारी घुनघुटी वन परिक्षेत्र के चौरी बीट से बाघ को पार्क ले जा रहे थे। इस दौरान बाघ को बेहोश करने के लिए गन से दवा दी गई। बेहोशी की हालत में उसे पिंजड़े में रखकर पार्क एरिया मे लाते समय रास्ते में बाघ ने दम तोड़ दिया। उमरिया में लंबे वक्त से बाघों के लिए काम कर रहे वन्यप्राणी प्रेमी पुष्पेंद्र कहते हैं कि सामान्यत: एक बाघ 12 साल ही जीता है लेकिन बी2 की उम्र काफी अधिक हो गई थी। लेकिन इसकी मौत से सिर्फ बांधवगढ़ को ही नहीं बल्कि दुनियाभर के बाघ प्रेमियों को झटका लगा है।

One last postmortem shot for all of us.
Some of the West Suburban Chicago Flickrers got together to help with this self-portrait, and take a few other photos with the coffin. Postmortem photography was very common in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. Some of backmarks on the cards the photos were mounted on explicitly made reference to that as in "Secure the Shadow Err the Substance Fades" For some folks - a posmortem photo was the only image ever taken of them.
It was a very interesting experience getting everything together. Finding a coffin was non-trivial. I found that the attitudes towards death and mortality varied all over the place. One of my co-workers explicitly asked NOT to see any of the pictures once I found the needed items to execute on the idea, though she did make a couple of inquiries with people who might have access to some sort of coffin. Traditions and attitudes vary a lot, remember the funeral scene from Live and Let DIe ?
In the end - while I am not looking for death - I've been close enough to know what's important, and to try and live my life accordingly. For me every day of life is a gift. You have told all the important people in your life how important and appreciated they are haven't you ?
This is the follow-up shot to the almost self-portrait for week 4 (last week) that didn't make it, as I found an accidental self portrait for that week of my 52 weeks project. It also helps that it didn't rain on this photo shoot- so it could be shot in the great out of doors.
Once you have procured the use of a prop like this, you can't just stop at one shot, see the Coffin set for some of the other images.
