Containing specially commissioned chapters by a roster of international contributors, this fascinating collection explores philosophical questions that abound in Blade Runner 2049, including:What distinguishes the authentically "human" person?How might natality condition one’s experience of being-in-the-world?How might shared memories feature in the constitution of personal identities?What happens when created beings transcend the limits intended in their design?What (if anything) is it like to be a hologram? Can artificial beings participate in genuinely romantic relationships? How might developing artificial economics impact our behaviour as prosumers?What are the implications of techno-human enhancement in an era of surveillance capitalism?Including a foreword by Denis Villeneuve, Blade Runner 2049: A Philosophical Exploration is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, film studies, philosophy of mind, psychology, gender studies, and conceptual issues in cognitive science and artificial intelligence.
