Transhumanoids _ Submission for Filmmakers | The Alliance for Downtown New York

This is our submission of "Transhumanoids" for the Downtown Alliance Filmmaker in Chief Grant and Residency opportunity in the summer of 2024
By:
Tatev, Campbell Charshee and B. Monét
We very much look forward to creating our vision of this interactive and inclusive musical production come alive in a cinematic format and hope you choose our project!
Transhumanoids are beings that operate at more highly evolved levels of bio-technical synthesis, representing the future of human consciousness at its highest potential. The Transhumanoids project envisions a world based on the more complex and less-understood sciences of regeneration, preservation, and rejuvenation as opposed to the more mechanistic and formulaic scientific practices that have been productive in more industrial settings; a world in which humanity works in a partnership relationship with nature rather than dominant one. This future vision can only be realized via raised levels of consciousnesses through love and music and through sciences that learn from nature, such as biomimicry, microfluidics, and material ecology. Much of this vision is inspired by realizations of Tatev’s near death experience in her youth, Campblicated’s continuous experience with medical technology and Dr. Neri Oxman’s incredible work. Within this positive framework, technology can be regarded as a gift to mankind rather than its oppressor, as life-enhancer rather than soul-destroyer, and as partner rather than controller.
This vision is encoded in the music and lyrics of Transhumanoids, thanks to the ingenuity and musical talents of Tatev and Campbell. In addition to its philosophical underpinnings, the song includes commentary on social structures, specifically, conditions in Tatev’s native Armenia. The piece incorporates a spoken-word section, completely in Armenian, that addresses issues of patriarchy and miseducation in Armenian society head-on, offering ideas about how Armenians might solve these problems, and how Armenian culture could become a force for progress on the world stage.

Считаю что наша планета тюрьма! Но мне близка ваша философия, грибы не пробовал живу свободным человеком в этой огромной клетке мира, надеюсь больше сюда ( на землю) не вернут.
