WHO WE ARE
The Human Augmentation Research Network (HARN) is a multidisciplinary collective of scholars from anthropology, religious studies, science and technology studies, informatics, sociology, and neighboring fields, who are researching emerging technologies and techno-cultures. The working group is a non-competitive and inclusive community.
The collective is open to academics at any level with an interest in transhumanism, biohacking, grinding, implantable devices, artificial intelligence, radical life-extension, cyborgs, cyberpunks, futurism, and emerging technologies or techno-cultures.
HARN advocates that new perspectives and methodological considerations are necessary in the study of emerging technologies and techno-cultures. While research on many of the aforementioned topics has been ongoing for decades, HARN supports and encourages creative, experimental, and challenging projects contributing to the emergence of the next generation in human augmentation research.
