Spanning the gap of cultural domains, this skywalk transports us as a culture responsible for the creative roles we play in our evolution and the parts we replace with the techno-science biology. Like a beacon mapping out a passage into the future, let us to question our evolution: Why would we want to live indefinitely? Is cryogenics the best safety-net available today for indefinite lifespans tomorrow? What are the ground breaking technologies extending life? What about uploads and artificial life? Are you an Automorpher? You will see a visual language that illuminates, propels and uplifts us with critical savvy. Open the floodgates! The power source is on! You are invited to participate in “The Aesthetics Of Memetic Evolution” by entering the virtual cryogenics chamber at http://www.extropic-art.com. Watch the spinning head and see for yourself why you might want to live indefinitely. This Performance Art event will begin the CryoFeast 1997 weekend. Who will be there? Creative Minds! **CryoFeast 1997 Party** With no further adieu, let the CryoFeast begin: The 1997 CryoFeast will be hosted in Los Angeles on December 6th at 7:30 p.m. (See below for contact information.) It's a pot luck, so bring your favorite delicious dishes. Parking is adjacent to our townhouse and we will have signs up guiding you here. FEATURED GUESTS AND EVENTS: **Premiere video "Vernor Vinge - The Singularity" (Prepared especially for the CryoFeast.) **Fred and Linda Chamberlain, founders of Alcor Foundation **Artificial life visuals - Karl Sims (and other video clips) And, for those of you who would rather expand your brain than your belly, we have plans for book signings from some of our favorite authors. While others may be a little behind the times in giving thanks for the harvest; we are giving thanks for the technologies that may help us to achieve indefinite lifespans. I welcome all to attend my home in Los Angeles or the other fantastic Co-Hosted CryoFeasts honoring Alcor Life Extension Foundation.
