There are realists, who see things as they are. And there are optimists, who see things as they could be.
Optimists may be dreamers, but for them every door is open. It is this limitless possibility and can-do mind that helps the ANNA AGTMA-"optimists" become transhumanists, they wo intend to live forever.
As Earth becomes overcrowded and totally used up our optimists see their only solution in colonizing space. But as on the surface of Venus they would melt and on the surface of Mars they would freeze they have to upgrade their bodies. That is why they have their genome profiled and are glimpsing to the next stage of human evolution on Titan.
This ANNA AGTMA assemblage is a humorous look at the manifold degrees of virtual experience and freedom.
