THE FUTURE!
Interested in finding out about Transhumanism? Want to find why people keep talking about Human 2.0? Thinking a lot about the possible technological singularity? Prehaps you just like technology and want to find out more?
This group is for people who are interested in the future and maybe want to help shape it.
Anybody is welcome to this group - you don't have to be a Techno Geek or work for some futuristic company to be in our group. The future applys to us all and major paradigm shifts in technologies like nanotechnology, genetics and computing are going to make the next few years very exciting or dangerous.
Is the (non Astronomical) Singularity something to fear? Are we becoming out of touch with our humanity because of technology? Or are things improving and we are entering a golden age?
Come join in the debate - have your opinions voiced and maybe make some interesting new freinds.
All I ask is that members treat each other with the respect they would want for themselves. Our group has members of all ages and backrounds. We have many different perspectives on what the future may bring and like to share different ideas with each other. Sometimes cynical and sometimes silly we approach the future with a open mind and sense of humour. Our group mission is to introduce you to some of the idea's, advancements and people who are making our future happen today.
If you have a subject you would like us to discuss at a meetup just drop us a line.

Note: Videos of some of the previous meetings are avaialble on YouTube.

    "Hi, I've always been fascinated by new technology, and have recently started reading 'An optimist's tour of the future' which has led me into finding more about transhumanism. And so.. I'm very new to this but am very interested!"
