The contributors address the most challenging philosophical, ethical, and aesthetic issues in the field of trans-, critical post- and metahumanism, such as debates concerning Nietzsche as a weak proto-transhumanist, potential risks and benefits of artificial intelligence, brain-computer interfaces and (bio)enhancements, ecological crises, space travel, the use of human embryos for artistic purposes, robots as artists, humans as cyborgs, and more. This collection provides a critical introduction to Sorgner's philosophy as well as a complex intellectual engagement with the field of posthuman studies. It is a rich reflective journey for all those interested in technology, ethics, art, and the posthuman paradigm shift.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction, Aura Elena Schussler and Maurizio Balistreri\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePART I.
