What is a digital twin? What forms can it take and for what purposes does it serve? Are we talking about a doppelganger as a special form of self-representation in the digital space or as a way of interacting with someone with whom it is impossible to do so in the real world? - Digital footprints: what are they, why and how do we leave them, where are they used now and what are the potential scenarios for future use? - Digitization of personality/consciousness: what are our limitations in technology, case studies (text bots, visuals in VR, etc.) - Ethics of interacting with digital doppelgangers. Psychological, social and legal issues. Handling, storage and use of digital doppelganger data. - Various practices for handling accounts/digital objects of deceased people. Organizers of the networking session will conduct a pre-event tech check with all online participants to test their internet connection, audio, and video quality. Any possible connectivity issues will be detected in advance to ensure a seamless experience during the session. In terms of representation during the session both onsite and online moderators will work to ensure that online and offline participants and speakers are equally represented and have the same opportunities to speak, ask questions and intervene. Session will also incorporate instant feedback collection from the audience as for discussion to be naturally navigated. All participants, including online, will be able to provide instant feedback during the discussion using various online tools (i.e. Mentimeter or Kahoot!). On every onsite question there will be given word to online participants providing them with an opportunity to present their view or ask a question.
