The rate at which technology is changing our world; not just on a global level like space travel and instant worldwide communications but on the level of what we choose to wear, where we live, and what we eat, is staggeringly fast and getting faster all the time.

The rate of change has become so fast that a concept has become a widely expected outcome, a singularity referred to as the Spike. At that point of singularity, the cumulative changes on all fronts will affect the existence of humanity as a species and cause a leap of evolution into a new state of being.

The results of all these changes will be unimaginable social dislocating, a complete restructuring of human society, and a great leap forward into a dazzlingly transcendent future that even science fiction writers have been too timid to imagine.
