  • The news came at me last week like a misguided arrow. "Somehow this can't be!" I keep saying to myself. And in my selfishness also keep thinking, "Why, oh why wasn't I better at keeping in touch with him?" Now I would like some answers. I mean the first shock is over, but is anybody wondering why he took his life in TelAviv? Or even how? Maybe I'm being insensitive now, but this is after crying my eyes out for almost a week. Anyway. As far as passwords, etc... has anyone contacted Dominique? Might be a place to start. Otherwise I don't know what other next of kin might be around to officiate inheriting his digital existence. Okay. Nuff sed. Yariv, you will not be forgotten!

  • Regarding the 'digital identity'... At the memorial meeting yesterday, plans have been announced for a foundation to preserve his works online.. first step is to find all the passwords.

  • His choice, which is a deeply personal right, although free will is overestimated.

  • You said: our friend Yariv Alter Fin, "who sadly ended his life" last week in Tel Aviv. Do you mean his death was a case of suicide?
