I just watched an interesting series of videos on YouTube that I’d like to recommend. It is an introductory level series of very short videos on the topic of transhumanism. They are in French with subtitles. Guillaume Loublier created these to spread the word of Transhumanism throughout France. There are four videos, and if you start with the first one, then they all play in sequence automatically.

Watch them and let Guillaume know what you think of his work.

Gerd Leonhard discussion regarding Humanism and Transhumanism.


This is an excerpt from my latest digital conference, April 23, 2020, “Humanist vs Transhumanist” featuring Calum Chace and me.

My Futures Agency colleague and fellow futurist Calum Chace disagree with me on many of my core messages on topics such as the singularity, (trans)-humanism, artificial intelligence and what I call ‘man+machine futures’.

This episode of Debt Nation is sponsored by Thrivous, the human enhancement company (https://thrivous.com). Thrivous develops and distributes advanced nootropic and geroprotector dietary supplements, to enhance cognition and promote healthy aging. Each nutrient and each dose is based on multiple human studies. And all quality control is completely open source.

For transhumanists, the possibilities of human interconnectivity via technology is only the beginning of how people may eventually transcend the limitations of their bodies. Photographer David Vintiner and art director Gem Fletcher set out to meet the innovators, artists, and dreamers within the transhumanism movement who are pushing the boundaries of their biology to become something more than human. Their project I Want to Believe consists of three chapters — the first touching on wearable technology, the second on individuals who have made permanent changes to their bodies, and the last on how some transhumanists plan to transcend the human condition.
