	Mummification refers back to the times when humans believed in postmortem life into which they would be reborn through their preserved bodies. In ancient Egypt an intact body was an integral part of a person's afterlife. Mummification process in that sense was an important element which dealt with the basic human fear — the fear of death.		Mummification refers back to the times when humans believed in postmortem life into which they would be reborn through their preserved bodies. In ancient Egypt an intact body was an integral part of a person's afterlife. Mummification process in that sense was an important element which dealt with the basic human fear — the fear of death.

	Since Ancient Egypt this belief in afterlife has gone through many stages and even transformed into the new belief of immortality without body, suggesting alternative modes of further existence such as downloading your brain into the silicon machine (see for example Kurzweil, R. The Singularity is Near, Penguin Group, 2005). The present culture is marked by obsession with the perfect-body-cult what is otherwise called quantified-self (see for example Wolf, G. Know Thyself: Tracking Every Facet of Life, from Sleep to Mood to Pain, 24/7/365).

To mention is also a question of saving humanity in case the Earth is getting into trouble (see for example Professor Stephen Hawking: Humanity will not survive another 1,000 years if we don’t escape our planet, http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/professor-stephen-hawking-humanity-wont-survive-1000-years-on-earth-a7417366.html).

			"Aurelia 1+Hz / proto viva generator addresses the possibilities of coexistence of animals and machines. In contrast to robots, which are driven by digital artificial intelligence, the project uses a live organism to process the “aliveness” of a simple machine." The project features an immortal jellyfish Turnitosis dohmii which is found in the Mediterranean Sea and in the waters of Japan. (http://robertina.net/aurelia-1hz/)
