Your Urge to Breathe Is a Lie N/A

A prismatic and polyphonic invitation to join us in an ecological, embodied and ethical approach towards transhumanist evolution amidst climate catastrophe. We embracing the cephalopod (octopus, squid, cuttlefish, nautilus) as the model (role model species; myths are also models) for human evolution.  Scientists, engineers, dancers, and synchronized swimmers on the brink of adulthood all train for human enhancement through the adoption of three key cephalopodic intelligences: embodied; shapeshifter; and distributed.  Transhumanist Cephalopod Evolutionwas developed by Miriam Simun at the MIT Media Lab, in collaboration with choreographer luciana achugar. The work is simultaneously a richly visual oceanic journey; a document of a training and research process; and an attempt to transmit tactile, proprioceptive sensation via the flat medium of video.
