Synopsis of To Be a Machine
En 'To Be a Machine', Mark O'Connell nos presenta una exploración del transhumanismo: sus raíces filosóficas y científicas, sus actores clave y sus posibles futuros. Desde carismáticos expertos en tecnología que buscan mejorar el cuerpo hasta inmortalistas que creen en la posibilidad de 'resolver' la muerte; desde programadores informáticos que rediseñan silenciosamente el mundo hasta vastas convenciones competitivas de robótica. O'Connell pinta un retrato vívido de un movimiento internacional impulsado por ideas y prácticas extrañas y frecuentemente perturbadoras, pero cuya obsesión por trascender las limitaciones humanas puede verse como una especie de microcosmos cultural, una intensificación radical de nuestra fe más amplia en el poder de la tecnología como motor del progreso humano.
