Communication style includes not only what a person says, but also how he or she does it:

– Frequency of using certain words, expressions, jokes, even slang in conversational speech.

– Attitude toward the person speaking.

– The style of writing emails, messages, social media posts.

Life stories are not just a stream of words, they are a channel through which we transmit our life experience and values. They play a key role in allowing others to get to know our inner self better.

Each of us is unique, and our stories are a reflection of that uniqueness. Through stories about our life events, we demonstrate our worldview, our beliefs, principles and experiences.

When we share our successes, failures, trials and triumphs, it can support, motivate and inspire others. Our life experiences will be a catalyst for someone to change or help someone else overcome a challenge. Life stories will be a good legacy for future generations.

A digital copy can be an «enhanced» version of a person. This means creating a version of oneself without undesirable traits, with enhanced positive characteristics, which can be useful for creating a positive image for descendants or for professional purposes. In this case, it is necessary to selectively preserve only those aspects of personality that a person would like to keep forever.

Creating a copy of a personality is not just archiving data, it is the art of capturing a person’s essence in digital form.

The system analyzes vast amounts of data from a person’s life – from personal diaries and correspondence to videos and social interactions – to create the most accurate digital copy of the personality possible.

Chapter 3: Practicing Self-Description

Self-description – what is it? Simplistically, it is the process of presenting a person’s information about himself or herself. What information should be presented about oneself, all or part of it? It depends first of all on the goal-setting – «why?». In our case, self-description has the ultimate goal – to create a digital copy of a person, his simulacrum, similar to the original in behavior, beliefs and general memories. Transferring certain qualities to the digital entity will allow it to continue your intellectual endeavors in some form.

So what should go into a self-description to create a more or less convincing digital copy of a person?

1) Writing as detailed an autobiography as possible. Not in dry official language, but with a description of your emotional attitude to each significant event that occurred in your life. Especially try to note the key events that influenced your character, inner state or further life. Write why it affected you and what changes happened to you. If a certain fact is important, it should have an impact on behavior and/or internal experience. Moreover, it should have an impact often enough. In addition, describe pleasant and unpleasant memories – so that our copy has a memory of events that happened to the original. If there are photos or videos of these events, we attach them to the description, and in the text we provide links to these media materials. That is why it is best to make the self-description in the form of an HTML file with embedded links to photos and videos.

2) Collect photos of yourself in profile, full-face, back, full-length, in different clothes, preferably on a homogeneous background. Close-ups of the face in full-face are necessary necessarily (to recreate the image). We describe our appearance in words – as we imagine ourselves. Height, weight, habitual gestures. Save voice and DNA samples (hair, teeth). Record a video message to posterity.
