I am neither this body nor this mind. These are just tools. I am who is experiencing this world by these tools.

NO ONE DOES YOUTUBE LIKE THE PURSUIT OF WONDER

It's funny because 'Outis' actually means "no one" or "nobody" and this pseudonym is often used to hide someone's identity...

Creepy. So throughout the entirety of Jack's augmented life the only thing that remained the same was the e-paper trail of consent forms that basically remind him to input his name.

I feel like this can be used as a metaphor for growing up. Our memories fade and change, so do our interests, skills and desires. Even our entire body. But something remains.

My name is Jack, and I'm 29. This was surreal.

The scary part is that it seems like a realistic progression of events too

“We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings, having a human experience”

Love this quote. Seems appropriate here 🙂

Sitting alone in a dark room, watching this video, I feel like I am the only human being in the world. This is so freaking

its crazy to think that even after all of those body modifications, he was able to recognize himself as himself. however, i occasionally go through a "is this really my face" and "is this me" phase every few weeks so i dont think i would last in this very futuristic yet cool yet terrifying world

Does anyone else feel a sense of dread when they think of such a future where you inborn talents abilities and your identity are just temporary and anyone can steal the person you are. Despite all the advantages of an artificial body and self, I feel sort of lucky to be in a time where everything is still mostly natural.

Great take on the classic philosophical though experiment “Ship of Theseus”

If Jack changed his name, and changed his memories to match said name, he would genuinely feel his new identity was always who he is.

Could make a Black Mirror episode out of this.
