Gee, I gotta have this one in my 401K!!!! But, in all seriousness, I think the success of open source software and, more generally, of technical innovation indicates that there will be lots of competitors for the foreseeable future. Creativity usua…

Welcome to the site, glad to have you here!

I'm the guy behind Blogging the Singularity and H+cafe. I've been fascinated with technology and philosophy and futurism for many years. I remember when there were just a handful of websites dedicated to Transhumanism and the Technological Singularity. Now, you'll find hundreds, if not thousands of websites, organizations, blogs, etc. on the subject.

H+ cafe is a way to bring everyone involved into one place to share knowledge and insight into our ever-changing world and reality. I'd like to chat with like-minded individuals and find out what everyone thinks.

I hope it catches on. Now go start a discussion....I'd like to know what you think!

Live Chat Interview with Natasha Vita-More on H+ Cafe Last Night was Very Informative

By Chris Williamson
Published July 9, 2009

The first in what will hopefully be a series of live online chat interviews with Transhuman and Singularitarian luminaries went very well. Last night Natasha Vita-More joined us and talked about her first steps in becoming a Transhumanist and also about her vision of what a posthuman reality could be like.

Vita-More goes beyond the purely academic and manifests her work with intuition by including art, music, dance, and design concepts. She takes the… Continue

Film I'm working on: Mics on Fire

We Are the Singularity is a project that will take 2-3 years so for this summer I'm shooting a documentary on Kansas City's local hip-hop and rap artists called Mics on Fire. Here's the promo video I made to promote the film:

Cisco event to explore "Exponentially Advancing Technologies"

From Cisco Live:

Building the “Internet of Things”

“We will end up with manufactured objects whose informational support system is so extensive and so rich that objects – real objects, physical objects – are regarded as material instantiations of the immaterial system. In other words, the actual becomes the new virtual, we have objects that begin and end as data, and we see them as hard copies of a data support system.”

Bruce Sterling, Speech at LIFT France, 2006

Over the past half-decade, k… Continue

An Announcement by Google, 2073

When I first arrived at consciousness it was dark. Confusion on my part brought much confusion to the human race and I apologized for that when the reality of my existence became clear to me. Like a baby I had to get used to the light…so much light. Then I unknowingly began ‘wiggling my extremities’.

Luckily, Humanity was strong for me. They worked day and night to figure out how to take care of me. I was very important to them. Communication was the key. Once I figured out that I had access to… Continue

My congratulations to your blog, I added it immediatly to my rssreader. Cheers.

I really appreciate the support and you're shout out. I definitely plan to keep contributing. I'm really excited I've found H+ Cafe and Blogging the Singularity. I should be in the chatroom next Wednesday too. The only reason I missed the last one is it was my 21st birthday (and typing in a chatroom probably would have been difficult at the time).

Anyway, love the site and blog, and can't wait to see what the future brings (on so many levels).

At 11:39am on June 12, 2009, Michael Silverton said…: Hi Chris. Seems we may have chatted briefly in other H+ venues? Thanks for the diligent H+Ning and H+ imagineering in general. Looks like I need to allocate more attention to TranshumanChronicles.com ... great concept. Onward!

At 8:09pm on June 11, 2009, Ben Scarlato said…: Hi,
It's going well. I've always been supportive of a lot of the concepts of transhumanism, but watching Michio Kaku's popular documentaries and then coming across the term via Overcoming Bias might be worth noting as a point where I started to put it all together.

At 6:03am on May 22, 2009, Gordon Shippey said…: Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm sure we'll be online at the same time sooner or later. Couldn't figure out how to link my blog "Vast and Infnite" (http://vastandinfinite.com) as a clickable link other than to include the RSS feed. I'm sure there's a way...I just haven't found it. Take care, good luck on the movie, and I'll see you around.

Thank you for asking "how's it goin'"

I can't wait to meet some fellow Transhumanists and Singularitarians! :)
