What if you could transfer your mind to another body or enhance your limbs with bionic technology? Sounds like science fiction, right? Well, not for long.

In this episode of CultureScape, we talk to Dr. Robert E Hampson, an author and a DARPA neuroscientist working on the cutting edge of bionics and neuroscience.

He tells us about his new book Desert & the Moon, which explores the possibilities and challenges of living in a world where humans can augment themselves with cybernetic enhancements. He also shares his insights on the current state and future of bionics and neuroscience, based on his experience at DARPA and his passion for classic sci-fi.

This fascinating and eye-opening conversation will make you rethink the boundaries between science fiction and reality.
