Welcome to h+ Roadmap,

a collection of ideas for stuff.

268 articles in English

This wiki goes by many names-- hplusroadmap, biohack, and mindhack; perhaps one day transhumanwiki too.

Introduction to the site

The purpose of hplusroadmap is to promote, explore, and document the technological singularity and beyond. A wikiable copy of our transhuman technical roadmap is an important article hosted here. It's a strategy towards a post-scarcity, technological singularity, exponential growth, self-replication, open source automated manufacturing, and so on. A large portion of articles focus on do-it-yourself biology (see diybio) and genetic engineering, and other miscellaneous pages for ideas, experiments, and practice. The site's mission is broad scope, but also focused on practical technologies and actually getting to the singularity. The main interest is in self-modification (brain augmentation) and next-generation brain building (neuroinformatics2008, anyone?), such as with the matter compiler, a (so far) theoretical component of the OSCOMAK puzzle.

One particular aim is to collaborate on expanding and improving the biohacking kit. Your feedback matters -- consider starting a journal or even a blog (somewhere like Wordpress and others).

An introduction to the open source synthetic biology biohacking kit

Join the revolutionary/evolutionary fight against cancer, AIDS, malaria, and other diseases, even against 'death' itself. Maybe you want to see some glowing bacterium, to get your own ecoli farm rolling? Or perhaps you are inspired by the prospects of managing colonies of billions of organisms. This open, free synthetic biology kit contains all sorts of information from across the web on how to do it: how to extract and amplify DNA (one of the secrets of life), cloning techniques, making DNA, and all sorts of other tutorials and documents on techniques in genetic engineering, tissue engineering, synbio (synthetic biology), stem cell research, SCNT, evolutionary engineering, bioinformatics, etc. And since the project is open, it's free for you to revise or share your experiences, or even share your genes (got anything cool?). We are at an exciting period in biology and this wiki can lower the barriers of entry into the open biotech future.

Sourceforge is hosting the biohack/kit main page.
