A new theme that HRO will continue to explore is coping with tragedy. As the internet evolves, our society (and tweens) are finding modern ways to cope with loss and/or tragedy. For example, there were the infamous 9-11 alts who ended up on their city's local news. Was wearing replicas of the World Trade center too much, or was their perspective just too progressive for most people?
Is there an authentic space that exists where we can truly pay our respects by honoring our genuine perception of the event? Where is the line between 'funnie', 'inappropriate' and 'as terrible as it could possibly get' when it comes to modern coping.
Here is this video tribute to DJ AM & Travis Barker. They were in an accident that you wouldn't wish upon any one. As the internet evolves and tweens have dehumanized celebrities into fake entities, will this be the future of 'authenticity' when it comes to dealing with loss+tragedy?
These girls have communicated at 100% capacity, conveying their complete perspective on the TRV$ DJ-AM plane crash. Should I find this offensive, or representative of reality?
