Transhumanist Resources

'What is a human being, then?'
'A seed.'
'A... seed?'
'An acorn that is unafraid to destroy itself in growing into a tree'

David Zindell, The Broken God

Transhumanism is a philosophy that humanity can, and should, strive to higher levels, both physically, mentally and socially. It encourages research into such areas as life extension, cryonics, nanotechnology, physical and mental enhancements, uploading human consciousness into computers and megascale engineering.

Introduction to Transhumanism

The Individual Sphere

Practical methods and visions of transforming ourselves, achieving longevity or immortality, conquering death and disease, amplifying our intelligence and extending our bodies.

The Global Sphere

The future evolution of humanity, postbiological existence, technological singularity, posthuman beings, expansion into the universe and the Omega Point.

The Cultural Sphere

The philosophy, ethics, art and language of transhumanism, and how society, culture and "the human condition" may change in the future.

The Technological Sphere

The technologies making things possible: nanotechnology, biotechnology, space colonization and advanced computing, and the outer limits of technology: megascale engineering and spacetime manipulation.

The Organisational Sphere

Transhumanist organizations, web pages, mailing lists and related subjects.
