THE UTILITY CAR YOU WOULD TAKE TO THE GRAVE

- MEMO 10 / OCTOBER 2023 - DAY OF THE DEAD. Why would someone want to take a bunch of junk with them even after taking their last breath? Undoubtedly, people are peculiar, but also because objects are a kind of GPS for our existence and help us find a little meaning in this enigma called life.

So here we are, on a tour of the darker side of existence, exploring the utilitarian objects that defy oblivion and become eternal companions on the journey to the afterlife. Here's our Top Ten:

1. A MOLCAJETE to awaken ancestral flavors.

2. VINYL RECORDS that resonate like anthems in the night.

3. A HAMMOCK so you can swing between the world of the living and the dead.

4. SWEETS to revive the joy of life. Because who would want to go to the afterlife with a bad taste in their mouth?

5. A good coffee to stay wide awake after death

6. A DEEFE t-shirt that, even if you don't know where you're going, at least tells you where you came from.

7. A straw blower, just in case you were invited to the barbecue.

8. Some PINS that remind you of your tastes and awaken memories of past lives.

9. A small stool in case you have to wait, so at least you're seated.

10. Some wooden dice, just in case.
