Project Researcher, Cybernetic Humanity PJ.

My interest lies in liberating humans from the constraints of the physical body and transcending the limitations of our physical existence. When people hear about "liberation from the physical body," they might imagine a future where the body is entirely discarded, leaving only a brain in a vat. However, I believe that the "body" is an essential interface for interacting with the world, playing a critical role in how we engage with our surroundings. That said, the "body" does not necessarily need to be confined to the physical form we were born with; it can be reconstructed and evolved through technology.

I explore human potential through two approaches: extending the physical body and reconstructing the body itself. Through these efforts, I aim to understand how our concept of "body" can be transformed and how such transformations influence self-awareness and behavior. Ultimately, my goal is to present a new form of humanity, freed from physical constraints, and to envision a future where humans and technology co-evolve and co-create together.
