3. POSTHUMANISM IS A MOVEMENT ON THE BORDER BETWEEN SERIOUS SCIENTIFIC
DISCOURSE AND FICTION: BASED ON THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF
COMMUNICATION, AS WELL AS THE LEGACY OF CYBERPUNK DYSTOPIA, IT OFFERS A
VISION OF A TRANSITION FROM HUMAN TO THE SO CALLED POSTHUMAN. THE
POSTHUMAN IS SEEN AS AN OFFSPRING OF TECHNOCULTURE, THE SYNTHESIS OF
LIVING AND ARTIFICIAL, A LOOSELY EVOLVING ENTITY WITHOUT FIXED ONTOLOGICAL
BOUNDARIES. THE EXISTENCE OF POSTHUMAN LIES BEYOND DUALISTIC
CATEGORIZATION, HAS A PROCESSUAL CHARACTER AND REFUSES ANY ESSENTIALIST
APPROACH.
IT IS AN ATTRACTIVE A SYMBOL OF TRANSGRESSION AND A SEXY POSTMODERN
SLOGAN,HOWEVER, MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, POSTHUMAN IS A METAPHOR
ADOPTED BY A VARIETY OF NARRATIVES FOCUSED ON THE POTENTIAL ASPECTS
OF TECHNOLOGICALLY EXTENDED LIFE: FROM SERIOUS SCIENTIFIC
INVESTIGATIONS, THROUGH SCIENCE-FICTION, UP TO ITS
ARTISTIC APPROPRIATIONS. POSTHUMANISM HAS ALWAYS BEEN
APPROACHED AS A LIMINAL TRANSDISCIPLINARY FIELD LOCATED ON
THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND ART.
