Hello!

 

Thank you for picking up The Art of Death.

 

Almost all of us have some sort of presence on social media today, either directly or indirectly. If you are someone who does not use Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, then you may not even know that a well-meaning friend or family member has captured your photo at a certain time, at a certain location and tagged you in it. As you know, the serial killer in The Art of Death, the underground artist and self-named @nonymous, uses this public data to profile and catfish his victims. He uses their bodies as works of art that he displays in public and livestreams on social media. Unlike bricks and mortar galleries that have a limited life span, the internet is a digital museum that will house his work in some shape or form, forever. It was a hard book to write and it took me almost two years to complete. As a reader I think the message to take away from this is to be very careful with what information you share on social media. You don’t know who is looking in . . .
