Description

Opening Reception: Tuesday October 7, 7-9pm

What is the impact of technology on culture? What will become of our discarded hi-tech waste? Are we nearing the age of technological singularity, where 'the machines' advance more rapidly than humans? Will humans face an apocalyptic end to their civilization? Posthumanism is sometimes used as a synonym for the ideology of technology known as "transhumanism" due to the fact that it affirms the possibility and desirability of achieving a "posthuman future" in purely evolutionary terms. Some writers call transhumans the "earliest manifestation of new evolutionary beings".
