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.

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.

Where Will You Be When the Floodwaters Rise? -- The Indonesian Experience


*
Someone particularly oblivious to geography might ask why Indonesia's fate is so important. Well, Indonesia is the world's fourth most populous nation (after China, India and the United States), and her entire population lives on islands just off Southeast Asia. Certainly nations like Australia will agree that what happens to such an immense displaced wealth of people is a significant concern.
