THE TRANSHUMANISM PANDEMIC

“Within 30 years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be ended.” - Vernor Vinge, Technological Singularity, 1983

Within these pages we take an informative and in-depth look into the construct of the extensive Transhumanism matrix in an edge-of-the-seat balance between an unfolding reality that could equally rival any Hollywood sci-fi, and the factual entanglement that we collectively explore as human souls.

A layered awakening is promised the reader with this unprecedented collection of data that is sure to blow open the boundaries of any mind. The tearing apart of this deeply infesting pandemic will be vivisectioned chapter by chapter, casting a line through the story of humanity to reach an unexpected hidden plan that will rewrite the end-game for many.

Through the timely arrival of this book, a (perhaps prophetic) early-warning red alert, we can finally resolve to prepare and avoid the moment by moment staggering impacts of those who seek our organic annihilation.

This is one of the most important subjects of our time, and this (below) has just come to my attention, if you think its a trailer for a film think again, the film is the trailer for the new reality !

From BMC;


BMC labs is focused on developing biological implants that will make their hosts faster, smarter and healthier while improving sexual performance, and increasing the average life span.

Driven by a desire to improve people’s lives BMC strives to innovate, often finding inspiration in non-traditional places. One area of focus is licensing fictional IP found in films, TV and books. Our BODY MIND CHANGE™ series of human enhancement implants is a creative collaboration with some of the biggest names in entertainment. While it has become common for large corporations to bring on creative visionaries to help guide product development or provide market insight, BMC is taking the relationship further.

We’re pleased to announce POD (Personal On-Demand), the first release in our BODY MIND CHANGE™ series. This next generation recommendation engine knows what you want before you do. Forged from an innovative partnership with creative visionary David Cronenberg, BMC labs has secured an exclusive license to all the biology and technology IP found within Cronenberg’s films. In the process, BMC is turning science fiction into science fact.

POD reinvents the recommendation engine to make discovering the things you need, love or desire effortless. This state of the art biotech implant will guarantee you personalized recommendations that are 99.999% relevant all the time. POD grows with you to become an intuitive companion, enhancing your life and storing the best that the world has to offer for immediate recall at any time. After a light training period, POD will be able to predict your deepest unfulfilled desires – even the ones you didn’t know you had.

It all begins when you grow your own bionanohybrid cells in our lab. After six weeks of personalizing POD’s AI system, the resulting organ is ready for implantation. During that time, you teach the organism about your needs, loves and desires by engaging with stories, games and visual content.

After implantation, your experience evolves into "hands free" mode; visual and auditory experiences immerse you in fictional overlays to the real world. You stay in the driver’s seat by simply activating and deactivating POD with a thought. Now able to directly build on your sympathetic nervous system’s reactions to the world around you, POD’s ability to inspire and fulfill you accelerates.

As an added bonus, BMC continues to update POD with new content by matching your preferences to our robust database and user grid.

David Cronenberg quietly licensed the fictional technology and science found within his films Shivers, The Brood, Scanners, Videodrome and eXistenZ for a mind-bending eight-figure sum. While it is common for a film’s IP to make its way into other mediums, such as books, television or games, it is highly unusual for a film’s fictional elements to become actual biotechnology. The deal was struck by a stealth Los Angeles-based biotech startup called Body Mind Change Labs. BMC intends to turn Cronenberg’s science fiction into science fact. The company’s first release is called POD (Personal On-Demand), a next-generation recommendation engine inspired by Cronenberg’s eXistenZ that helps its hosts discover what they need, love or desire, effortlessly.

With 83 behavioral AI (artificial intelligence) patents awarded or pending and a team with 70 years of collective experience in the field of biotech, a strong foundation for a new model is in place. Over the next year, BMC hopes to close eight more deals. If the interest from A-list talent is any indication of the strength of the model, then BMC is in great shape. Indeed, the company is currently inundated with submissions of existing film and television properties.

As if torn from the pages of a science fiction novel, BMC’s ambitious goal is to enhance humankind by harnessing biotechnology to make us smarter, faster and more efficient. BMC argues that human beings are naturally flawed and only achieving 35 per cent of their true potential. Their model is betting on the answer resting within human enhancement implants — modifications that BMC believes are part of an emerging market with a potential to become a $35-billion industry by 2020

This is the seminal documentary from Aaron Franz

He told me there was going to be a second one, but that was ages ago, he now seems to do radio shows instead , http://www.youtube.com/user/ADDTV?feature=watch

THE 2045 Project http://2045.com/ideology/

Future prospects of "2045" Initiative for society

2015-2020

The emergence and widespread use of affordable android "avatars" controlled by a "brain-computer" interface. Coupled with related technologies “avatars’ will give people a number of new features: ability to work in dangerous environments, perform rescue operations, travel in extreme situations etc.
Avatar components will be used in medicine for the rehabilitation of fully or partially disabled patients giving them prosthetic limbs or recover lost senses.

2020-2025

Creation of an autonomous life-support system for the human brain linked to a robot, ‘avatar’, will save people whose body is completely worn out or irreversibly damaged. Any patient with an intact brain will be able to return to a fully functioning bodily life. Such technologies will greatly enlarge the possibility of hybrid bio-electronic devices, thus creating a new IT revolution and will make all kinds of superimpositions of electronic and biological systems possible.

2030-2035

Creation of a computer model of the brain and human consciousness with the subsequent development of means to transfer individual consciousness onto an artificial carrier. This development will profoundly change the world, it will not only give everyone the possibility of cybernetic immortality but will also create a friendly artificial intelligence, expand human capabilities and provide opportunities for ordinary people to restore or modify their own brain multiple times. The final result at this stage can be a real revolution in the understanding of human nature that will completely change the human and technical prospects for humanity.

2045

This is the time when substance-independent minds will receive new bodies with capacities far exceeding those of ordinary humans. A new era for humanity will arrive! Changes will occur in all spheres of human activity – energy generation, transportation, politics, medicine, psychology, sciences, and so on.

Today it is hard to imagine a future when bodies consisting of nanorobots will become affordable and capable of taking any form. It is also hard to imagine body holograms featuring controlled matter. One thing is clear however: humanity, for the first time in its history, will make a fully managed evolutionary transition and eventually become a new species. Moreover, prerequisites for a large-scale expansion into outer space will be created as well.

Look who backs us all living in a virtual world !

The 2045 initiative has received the blessing and support from the Dalai Lama, as it prepares to announce the second Global Future 2045 Congress, being held in New York, June, 2013.

Dmitry Itskov, founder of 2045, met His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, in his residence in Dharamsala, a small mountain town in northern India.

They discussed the three major steps of 2045 Avatar Project. First, the creation of a human-like robot dubbed “Avatar A,” and a state-of-the-art brain-computer interface system to link the mind with it. Next, it be created a life support system for the human brain, which connects to the “Avatar A,” turning into “Avatar B.” The third step, named “Avatar C”, is developing an artificial brain in which to transfer one’s individual consciousness with the goal of achieving cybernetic immortality.

Creating the “Avatar C” through developing an artificial brain and understanding the nature of human consciousness, says the Dalai Lama, could be attainable, and would be a great benefit to future development of science.
