The Creatives
The H+ movement has the scientists, the philosophers,
and the commentators but where are artists? Apart from a
few notable exceptions, the movement is impoverished
due to its lack of creative input. No movement can hope
to ignite imagination without mediation by creative artists,
writers and image manipulators. In the world of the brand,
transhumanism seems oddly 20th century, tucked away in
its specialist email groups and meeting up at badly
advertised conferences to preach to the converted.
 
 

 

This page will be a list of creatives willing to
provide skills to supporting the great, but largely
hidden work of the H+ orgs. We need visual
artists, writers, poets, actors & actresses,
photographers, graphic designers, 3D artists,
models, art editors, filmmakers, body
performers, architects, fashion designers,
sculptors, advertising directors and more...
If you think you would like to offer
your services, email H+art.

 

I’m not going to rely on creative professionals and excelling amateurs to contact the site. From 2006, I will personally try to locate suitable H+ sympathetic talent.

Those who offer some work in any form for the H+ push can take advantage of being included below. At the moment, I have a few examples to show how that might work: Before the site goes live in a month I hope to have 20-30 creatives listed here.

"Transhumanism is born out of a great hope: that humanity in its current form is not the final word. That we can find ways of applying our growing technological prowess, wisely and responsibly, to prolong life and expand life beyond some of its present biological limitations... If H+art can help make our aspirations audible, our thoughts tangible, and our visions visible, it will take the great hope one step closer to becoming reality."

Aubrey d Grey, Chairman of The Methuselah Foundation
