Khannea Suntzu

Up is down, down is up

Apart from being a conceptual artist, an independent blogger, a futurist and a hobbyist-philosopher, Khannea Suntzu is a genderqueer transhumanist yet a critic of "US silicon valley techno-optimism" school of Kurzweilian Singularitarianism. Magazines such as La Monde, CGW and Forbes.com have written about her on several occasions in articles dealing with virtual prostitution, inside Second Life. Khannea supports radical democratization and advocates the extension of fundamental human rights, and sounds a warning about the dangers of "technological unemployment" in creating effectively irreversible societal divisions. She argues for proactive social activism against disparity.
