Digital Flash
Riffing on Events, Projects & Other Scoop
Hello creative visionaries!
I last communicated with you in July, just over 3 months ago. Since then
we continue to expand globally with many hundreds adding their names to
the Extropic Art Manifesto, along with continued international
recognition.
Several magazines have covered Transhumanist Extropic Arts the past few
months:
**Recent* Magazine/Newspaper Articles*
Italy's El Espresso magazine feature cover story "Giovani per sempre"
which interviews me about the future of the arts and references "Primo
3M+" http://www.extropic-art.com/aesthetics.htm, and also Roy Walford and
his new edition of _The 120 Year Diet_.
Scifi Dimensions online magazine interviewed Gina Miller

I continue getting numerous phone calls and messages about our culture,
and because the history of transhumans and transhumanism has been blurred
by the Net's inconsistent Web sites and some non-researched print
articles, I decided to start a new business. The business is called "m e
t a Culture" and its aim is to work toward getting information to the
public as openly, positively, accurately and as creatively as possible.

New Projects:
"Release" is a work in progress, but hopefully the progress will soon be
realized. It's a flash driven animation and with a storyline, narration,
and music of E. Shaun Russell and, hopefully, Max R. Rasmussen. Jason
Joel Thompson is advising on Net media. Anyone who would like to
collaborate with us on this project, please email us.
FM-2030, well known futurist and transhuman was suspended in July. We
are planning a collaborative event with Space Tourism Society (STS) which
is holding its "Space Fair 2001" in the fall at Pasadena's Convention
Center. http://www.space-tourism-society.org
