FLAUNT - The Generation Issue

I
n Transcendence, as Will continues
to live as a sentient computer his
sense of emotions begin to fade,
it’s ultimately his conscious and the
information there.
“Biochemistry is emotion, being
able to weigh everything no longer
makes you a person, you are a statistic.”
Computers aren’t always
efficient or last forever, nor should
we. The film also touches base on the
notion of always be connected to the
internet, implying that people to find it
as an extension of being and we feel lost
without it. At this point, the internet
source is what is keeping him alive, and
after transcending himself to become
a 3D regeneration he must always stay
connected to everyone.
At the end of this dynamic film
each character is forced to choose
between the destruction of all advanced
technology, and a return to a pretechnological
world, or the acceptance
of transcendence, and with it an end to
pollution, disease, and human mortality.
We’re only human, we naturally fear
what we don’t know and what we don’t
understand. Although, people don’t
know what is to come later in life, ‘the
human emotion can contain illogical
conflict, a piece of technology can’t
reconcile that.
