    MJ
    Does anyone else see Michael Jackson as a transhumanist artist?

    Exactly. Orlan, another great transhumanist artist.

    What surprises me is that apparently only MJ fans are talking about his death. And curiously, specifically fans from my generation... :) And I’m not a fan anymore, since those pedophilia episodes and with his musical decadence, oh yeah... But it’s my generation; I danced a lot MJ when I was young!

    Why people here on SC don't even mention MJ doubtful aesthetics body art?
    Poor MJ, victim of his huge success and weakness in front of everybody’s eyes! He certainly was interested in accelerate future - maybe not in that words but…

    As he was involved into a controversial haze all his life, isn’t a surprise that intellectuality don’t even mention his bizarre behaviour... And probably SC group are much more interested in carbon nanotubes, instead of follow those artists who are making at very least eccentricities with their bodies and minds. But as life is a continuous transition... we are living this transhumanist beginning transition.

    I’ll finish with Quiroga - an astrologist who I respect, in a sentence for my sign yesterday:
    “The human mind couldn’t be infinite, but is wide enough to look like that. That’s why isn’t that wrong include mind into concepts and prejudices, otherwise infinite wouldn’t happen.” Oscar Quiroga

    Easy, isn’t it?

    I heard him described as a "truly universal man" the day he died - indeed he actually moved through a whole spectrum of racial identities in his lifetime...I'd like to think of his physique as an embodied philosophy rather than as transhumanist...in any case, he was most definitely a landmark human being worthy of mention on SC.

    Lie the Truth!!!
    Dreamy remarks

    To the best of my knowledge Michael Jackson did NOT die, as he payed enough tax to the state of US, he got an island as Princess Diana, JFK and Marilyn Monroe, Lennon etc.
    I was asked to get a similar service before Jackson`s "death", but I said NO, because I didn't want to sell the copyrights of Spidrons to a strange company from L.A. or so. The agent`s name is Mouse, and he visited me at night in the campus of University at Albany, N.Y. where I slept having no money to book a room in Best Western Hotel. Next day the organizer of the conference ISAMA hit me and they wanted to make me frightened. I am laughing at these kinds of manipulation. I like better to be with my children in Hungary than in a lonely island in the Pacifics. Who will be the next? Madonna or Obama? I am quite worried. But, don`t take it too seriously. I`ll have a darts party with Michael on Wednesday or something like that.

    Yours
