Terasem Movement, Inc. is a non-profit charity founded in 2002 that educates the public on extending human life through emerging technologies like nanotechnology and cyberconsciousness. It conducts annual symposia and publishes journals on these topics. It also sponsors demonstration projects like CyBeRev, which preserves a digital record of a person, and a cryonics first response team equipped to stabilize and transport cryonics patients. The organization's goal is to ensure these technologies are developed and applied in a way that benefits all of humanity.

2. + The name Terasem means Earth Seed
Terasem Movement, Inc., founded by Martine
Rothblatt and Bina Aspen Rothblatt in 2002, is
a privately funded charity endowed for the purpose
of educating the public on the practicality and
necessity of greatly extending human life, consistent
with diversity and unity, via geoethical
nanotechnology and personal cyberconsciousness
encouraging public belief in a positive,
technologically-based future.
In particular, Terasem concentrates on facilitating
revivals from biostasis, focuses on preserving,
evoking, reviving and downloading human
consciousness.

3. + founders of Terasem are concerned the potential
The
for nanotechnology and cyberconsciousness for
relieving human suffering and extending human life:
• Will be truncated due to unwarranted fears
and concerns;
• Could be made available only to the elite;
and/or
• Could be made in a manner that creates
class divisions within society.

The founders of Terasem believe:
• Nanotechnology and cyberconsciousness need to be
developed consistently with full respect for diversity
and unity; and
• The potential for greatly extending human life and
relieving human suffering can be realized.

5. + Terasem accomplishes its objectives by:
1) Conducting annual, publicly accessible symposia:
The Annual Workshop on Geoethical Nanotechnology
When: Every July 20th in honor of the first lunar launch
• Geoethics is the study of technology risk/benefit management across geographic spaces.
Analogously, Bioethics is the study of technology risk/benefit management across corporeal or
physical spaces.
• The purpose of the event is to provide the public with informed perspectives regarding geoethical
nanotechnology via expert presentations, challenges and discussions. It also seeks to develop a
set of geoethical guidelines that will provide a “safe harbor” within which curative nanotechnology
can develop.
The Annual Colloquium on the Law of Futuristic Persons
When: Every December 10th in honor of International Human Rights Day
• The event seeks to provide the public with informed perspectives regarding the legal rights and
obligations of "futuristic persons" via expert presentations, challenges and discussions. We also
hope to facilitate development of a body of law covering the rights and obligations of entities that
transcend, and yet encompass, conventional conceptions of humanness.
Where: The venue for the workshops/colloquia is the
Terasem Island Amphitheater within the virtual community
of Second Life (coordinates: 121.155.30).

2) Publishing explanatory analyses in its online journals:
• The Journal of Geoethical Nanotechnology explores economic, political,
social and technological aspects of the developing technology of molecular
nanotechnology. The Journal invites submissions on controversial topics
such as self-replication and governance.
And
• The Journal of Personal Cyberconsciousness explores the
mathematical, physical, engineering (hardware, software, firmware),
philosophical, psychological, biological, socio-economic, and juridical aspects
of non-flesh based consciousness, such as could arise from an advanced
machine- based computer.

7. + 3) Conducting demonstration projects:
CyBeRev = Cybernetic Beingness Revival at:
www.CyBeRev.org
• The purpose of the CyBeRev project is to prevent death by preserving
sufficient digital information about a person (within a Mindfile) so that
recovery remains possible by foreseeable technology. At Terasem, we
believe future technology will be able to recover full functionality for
CyBeRev people. The service is free and open to anyone over the age
of 13.
PersonalityMD = Android Smartphone Application at:
www.PersonalityMD.com
• A fun and interactive questionnaire within a smart
phone application serving as an on-the-go portal to
preserving one’s consciousness with an option to
save all input/answers to your CyBeRev Mindfile!

4) Cryonics First Response Team
In its mission to greatly extend human life, Terasem and its founders sponsored the
creation of a Cryonics First Response Team. This team is currently comprised of eight
emergency response professionals who were cross-trained in a cryonics first response by
the Alcor Life Extension Foundation and Suspended Animation, Inc.
The photo to the right depicts a training session with Terasem team members at the Alcor
Life Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The focus of the Terasem Cryonics First Response Team is to
enhance existing teams in their remote accesses to Florida.
There are currently about twelve cryonicists living in or
frequenting Brevard County, located in south-central
Florida; some are drawn to this area as it is home to
Terasem’s central office.
