"I am a 21st Century person who was accidentally launched in the 20th. I
have a deep nostalgia for the future." FM-2030

FM-2030, pioneering transhumanist, author of Are You A Transhuman?,
Telespheres, Optimism One, Upwingers, and numerous other books, is
undergoing cryonic suspension. FM, world renowned for his visionary ideas,
will be remembered for his optimism and originality, and his loved ones
will miss him greatly.
"The exhilarating voice of a new, nonmystical consciousness ... FM dares us
to step outside our encaged historical selves and leap to a new stage of
evolution."
Alvin Toffler, author of Future Shock
"A prophet of Boom .... He maintains 'we are at the beginning of an age of
limitless abundance ... and an age of immortality.'" New York Times
He is a dreamer, a visionary, a social critic, a futurist with "a hailstorm
of ideas." Washington Post
"FM-2030 is a man so rational, so articulately confident that he emanates
the kind of ultimate optimism -- the triumph over alienation and
irrationality." Village Voice
"FM-2030 is one of the first thinkers in history to live, teach, plan and
campaign for a future for mankind ... he has suggested in bold
controversial an utterly new way of life." Barbara Marx Hubbard, The Futurist
