Description

The Technocalypse is "the convergence of technology and the apocalyptic imagination; it is cyberspace, nanotechnology, cryonics, futurism, the eschaton encoded in the now malleable protein chains of DNA, as well as the eventual transcendence of death." [Michael Grosso, PhD (ca. 1995)]

"Within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be ended." [Vernor Vinge (1993)]

The Singularity is coming. Will we wipe ourselves out, will AIs inherit the earth, or will we become our own god-like, potentially immortal successors? If you're looking for truth, technology, and transcendence --or simply a radical, open minded sort of environment-- look no further. This is the place where dreams are born and taboos come to die; where the wolves get separated from the sheep. Are you h@rdcore? Come in and find out!
