In this work, we describe several themes that can be useful for designing tangible technology in the context of death and mourning. We explore the effectiveness of physical and digital artifacts in the process honoring a loved one who has passed away. We employ a speculative prototype called Penseive Box to explore the intersection of tangible digital memorialization practices. Using this prototype to elicit reflections on personal memorialization practices, we interviewed several individuals who had recently lost a loved one, and present the results of our initial analysis here.
