From the page: "Top 10 Transhumanist Technologies"

Some interesting things, some things I don't think will happen (at least for a long time).

"Cybernetics" is the study of control mechanisms in complex systems. What they're talking about is biomechatronics, or biomedical engineering.

I got shivers down my spine several times while reading this. It feels amazing, but according to this we only need to live for few decades more to live forever and experience all this. I'd love it.

Mind uploading. "Mind uploading, sometimes referred to as nonbiological intelligence, centers around the controversial proposition that cognitive processing can be implemented on substrates other than our current neurons. Considering decades of successful results in neurophysiology, and the recent construction of the world's first brain prosthesis - an artificial copy of the hippocampus - this seems very likely. It appears that our minds are defined more by the information pattern they embody than the particular hardware they are implemented on." (downloaded from Substrate M)

From the page: "Transhumanists advocate the improvement of human capacities through advanced technology. Not just technology as in gadgets you get from Best Buy, but technology in the grander sense of strategies for eliminating disease, providing cheap but high-quality products to the world's poorest, improving quality of life and social interconnectedness, and so on. Technology we don't notice because it's blended in with the fabric of the world, but would immediately take note of its absence if it became unavailable. (Ever tried to travel to another country on foot?) Technology needn't be expensive - indeed, if a technology is truly effective it will pay for itself many times over."

A damn fine breakdown of why I am what I am and why I am so very hopeful.

More real than reality.

A very interesting blog; I have added to my list of "favorites" for future reading. It isn't the sort of thing you could read in one go.
