Dr. Günter Bachelier is working on a portrait series called “Masterminds of Contemporary Transhumanism.” Using a photograph of each of the subjects, Dr. Bachelier uses a computer program to generate 2000 impressionistic variations of the image.

Dr. Hughes and Dr. Bostrom are two of the nine subjects, with more in the works. The other current portrait sets are of FM-2030, JBS Haldane, Ray Kurzweil, Max More, David Pearce, Anders Sandberg and Natasha Vita-More. Dr. Günter Bachelier describes his work thusly:

An open-end art project about people who have introduced important memes in the H+ meme ecosystem…The evolutionary portrait art is adding an additional symbolic meaning in terms of transhumanism to my art: the believe that individuals will have the opportunity to self-modify to an unlimited number of new points in the space of mind. And regarding my work in evolutionary algorithms I strongly believe that evolutionary computation will play an important role as an enabling technology.
