Imagine a smartphone has its grave. And that its own body can become its own gravestone. Conveniently the body has an allover screen which can show the grave epitaph. It is possible to consider it dead because it inscribes itself dead, even if with the screen alive. But first and foremost, it should have been buried. A circular reference is going to occur. We see a void. By the way, what is the death of a smartphone? We should know it can happen, but yet we haven’t clarified what it is.
