Future Imperative

What if technology were being developed that could enhance your mind or body to extraordinary or even superhuman levels -- and some of these tools were already here? Wouldn't you be curious?

Actually, some are here. But human enhancement is an incredibly broad and compartmentalized field. We’re often unaware of what’s right next door. This site reviews resources and ideas from across the field and makes it easy for readers to find exactly the information they're most interested in.

About Me

Name:

The future is coming fast, and it's no longer possible to ignore how rapidly the world is changing. As the old order changes -- or more frequently crumbles altogether -- I offer a perspective on how we can transform ourselves in turn... for the better. Nothing on this site is intended as legal, financial or medical advice. Indeed, much of what I discuss amounts to possibilities rather than certainties, in an ever-changing present and an ever-uncertain future.

Time Travel Convention Held -- Still Time to Go Back and Visit -- SF, SkiP

Students at MIT held convention for time travelers this May 7th. Unfortunately, if you lack time travel equipment, you'll be unable to attend unless you can get access to some form of transchronal transport. But you can check out the NPR Interview in the meantime. The student behind the convention believes that only one time travelers convention will ever be necessary, because time travelers can always show up there and then regardless of what time they exist in -- so long as word of the event is transmitted far enough into the future. So if you have any plans after acquiring transtemporal tech, consider adding this to them.

Update: Wired reports on the wrinkles and quirks of this celebration. Scientists also remark on the potential risks of any effective form of time travel, such as the displacement of matter from our universe.
