Cryptography Donation To Transhuman House

(Provo, Ut) Presenting educational material is one of the key purposes of the Transhuman House. Visitors can not only explore the Foundation Library and the Transhuman Collection or check out local research on the BioCell or on the AGI Laboratory but also see cybernetic implants, learn about VR in full immersion systems or check out the scientific instrument collection. You can even book a stay on Airbnb. Recently, a donation to the Transhuman House included an ‘Enigma 2’ device that is a simple encryption tool that can be used to teach and even in its existing form is reasonably strong. Given the critical nature of how blockchain and related encryption technologies affect our future, it’s important to learn the principals of encryption and this is a great visual tool you can learn that with.

Come check out the Transhuman House and schedule a tour today.

Transhuman House Open House

(29 APR 20-17) – A soft launch of the Transhuman House in Provo Utah with guest including local transhumanists and others meet at the home.  A discussion was hosted on the purpose and goals of the House, local transhuman activities and more was discussed as well as having Soylent 1.7 and 1.8 available to try.  Seems the 1.7 uniformly tastes better according to attendees.  While the site is not ready this was really the first local event around the Transhuman House including discussions about H+, MTA, The Foundation, Hall Labs and other groups organizations that the Transhuman House might get involved with.
