Artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, implantable chips, and life extension. These and many other technologies are being promoted as the way for humanity to become something radically different. The transhumanist movement claims that by applying them to our biology, we will become posthuman. A new religion for a new age is being born, and it centers around Man's scientific attainment of eternal life. The Philosopher's Stone of the alchemists now appears to be within reach. Revolve takes you beyond the typical Singularity sales pitch to bring you face to face with something far more profound, disturbing, and ancient.
