To Be a Machine

先是Aileen推荐了一部名叫《To Be a Machine》的戏剧/演出。全程没有现场观众，观众都是事先预录了几段视频的样子，被放在现场剧院里的座位上的ipad上面。舞台上只有一个演员Jack Gleeson，说自己是一本同名书的作者Mark O’Connell，然后开始和在场的ipad上面的观众互动，和镜头前的观众互动，介绍一些关于transhumanism的概念以及对于这个戏剧本身的影响和意义。

第一次在电视剧《权力的游戏》之外看到Jack Gleeson，长大变老的样子反而让人觉得看的蛮顺眼的。然后这部剧结合transhumanism耍了一些小花招小技巧，比如线上下的交互啊，屏幕与现场的交叠啊，都还有蛮有意思的。但是真正关于transhumanism是什么，在这部戏剧里并没有多提，也蛮让人好奇的，所以便去读了这本原著。

To Be a Machine

Mark O’Connell

9781783781966

A movement predicated on the conviction that we can and should use technology to control the future evolution of our species. It is their belief that we can and should eradicate aging as a cause of death; that we can and should use technology to augment our bodies and our minds; that we can and should merge with machines, remaking ourselves, finally, in the image of our own higher ideals.

结果原著也没有讲清楚。首先原著作者给到了一个比较宽泛的定义，最初的想法大概意思就是人类的身体是一种限制，是否可能通过某种科技的方式使什么摆脱这种身体上的限制。然后作者东来西往，走访了很多和这个活动相关的人物。有很多很多派别，有那种很有钱的人想要保存自己的脑子意识延续生命的，有那种很业余很粗糙的把机器gadget植入身体里的大粗人，有的是把自己的宗教和transhumanism结合在一起的，有的是直接把transhumanism当作是一个宗教并作为其精神领袖要竞选总统的。

举了那么多的例子，核心的问题作者都是蜻蜓点水，并没有真正的涉及到。比如说我心中最大的困惑是，当身体和心灵脱离的时候，那在原来的身体里的心灵是消失了死亡了，还是被克隆了被复制了。把自己的灵魂置入一台机器中，和把自己的身体变成一台机器，我感觉是两件完全不一样的事情啊。然后再来讨论灵魂是什么，为什么灵魂可以脱离原本的身体而存在等等。暂时这本书里没有看到这些东西，反而是同名戏剧还多走了一步，有在探讨到一点点现代人类在网上有关于个体的那么多信息，那这些信息的总和（不管这个人是不是死掉）是不是也是一种这个人的线上的存在，那是不是已经是某种transhumanism了。
