****************

Transhumanist Party founder, and now Political and Media Advisor, Zoltan Istvan is scheduled to give a main futurist speech at this year’s Moogfest, which will take place sometime between May 18-21 in Durham, NC.

Zoltan will be speaking about his 2016 Presidential run under the U.S. Transhumanist Party, his travel across the country inside of the famous “coffin bus,” and the history of the Transhumanist movement – including the formation and current endeavors of the U.S. Transhumanist Party itself. If you’d like to attend this event, be sure to purchase tickets here.

In early 2015, when transhumanist US Presidential candidate Zoltan Istvan announced he would transform a 38-foot bus into a giant coffin and drive it across America to deliver a Transhumanist Bill of Rights to the US Capitol, many in the transhumanism community reacted with contempt and ridicule. Two years later, the Immortality Bus–created as a provocative symbol of resistance against death–has become one of the most recognized futurist projects in the world and has garnered approximately 50 million views across major media. The New York Times called the bus “the great brown sarcaphogus of the American highway…a metaphor of life itself.” Today feature films, documentaries, and even a likely final home in a major museum are being worked on for the Immortality Bus. Come hear Zoltan Istvan describe his captaining of the “coffin bus” and what really happened during this historic journey. [Source: Moogfest]

    I hate old age and our helpless exposure to the indifferent forces of Nature and the Universe. I only have my mind , brain , and rather fragile and disgusting body to experiment with. But i want to research , experiment and fight against our helpless exposure to the natural laws of the Universe.

    We are not so helpless Istvan, but have merely been trained to believe that we are… Imo.
