The Association Has a New Home
A rebuilt transfigurism.org: more content, more ways to connect, and a foundation for the next chapter of the Association’s work.
We are pleased to announce the launch of a new transfigurism.org. The culmination of years of marketing research, creative work, and software engineering, this web application unifies all our past content in a single location and adds several features, including podcasts, special projects, expanded primers, a compendium of inspiring quotations, a topical guide, AI chatbots, a merch store, and event management.
A Deeper Library
The most substantial change is the breadth and coherence of the content. Articles published across years of the Association’s life now live in one place, organized and searchable alongside a growing set of new resources.
The Topical Guide is new and worth your time. It covers hundreds of subjects, moving between the theological vocabulary of the Restoration and the technical vocabulary of transhumanism. Entries on theosis sit beside entries on AGI. Resurrection is in there alongside cryonics, gene therapy, and longevity escape velocity. In the spirit of circumscribing all truth in one great whole, we wish to explores the parallels and complements between these concepts and ideologies and place them in genuine conversation with each other.
The quotations collection gathers voices from scripture, Latter-day Saint leaders, philosophers, scientists, and transhumanist thinkers. Author biographies situate those voices in context. A video library of talks, podcasts, and conference recordings offers hours of substantive engagement with the ideas at the heart of the Association’s work.
New pages include a detailed FAQ, a Resources hub, News & Podcasts, and a What We’re Building section introducing active Association projects, including Project Lazarus and the State of Deseret, each of which will receive dedicated follow-up coverage.
A Homepage Worth Returning To
The redesigned homepage introduces two complete 24-hour animated themes: Western and Alpine, each unfolding across the day with changing light, atmosphere, motion, and small discoveries. Visitors may want to come back at different hours just to see what has changed: what appears in the distance, what moves through the landscape, what new detail suggests itself after a second or third look.
Together, the animations offer a glimpse of a possible bright future for humanity: one in which technology has become more humane, more beautiful, and more deeply integrated with the natural world. Throughout our content, vintage foreground illustrations add another layer to that vision. Historical figures rendered in traditional engraving styles are overlaid upon animated scenes of future possibility, creating a playful anachronism that invites reflection on deep time: where we have been, where we are going, and how much of human potential still waits ahead.
New Ways to Ask and Explore
The site now includes several chat agents for those who want to engage with Mormon transhumanist ideas conversationally rather than through browsing alone. MTABot handles broad questions about the Association and its ideas. A multiple-perspectives council mode brings several distinct viewpoints to bear on a single question at once. And a voice agent patterned on the works of Parley P. Pratt offers something genuinely different: a speech-based conversation rooted in the theological imagination of one of the Restoration’s most forward-looking early thinkers.
Community Infrastructure
The platform now supports the practical work of gathering. Members can find regional chapters, browse upcoming events, RSVP, and receive reminders by email or text. The Association’s membership has always been more geographically spread than a Utah-centric map would suggest, and the site is now built to honor that.
Store and Artwork
The new store opens with apparel, accessories, collectibles, and artwork, including the Transfigurist Artwork Series: stunning designs with playful slogans that give visual form to themes at the heart of Mormon transhumanism. Members can also apply eligible store proceeds toward membership dues. Several production options are available, allowing collectors to choose their orientation, as well as whether and how they want the logo and slogan to appear. Jigsaw puzzles of this art are also available.
A Foundation for What Comes Next
The site also lays groundwork for growth that won’t be immediately visible but matters for the long run: multilingual support, improved search and discovery, RSS feeds, structured sharing, and a public content service that allows other applications and AI systems to access the Association’s published resources.
This is the overview. Follow-up posts will go deeper on the homepage design, the chat agents, Project Lazarus, the State of Deseret, and the Transfigurist Artwork Series.
For now, the invitation is simple: visit transfigurism.org, spend some time, and let us know what you find. The site is new, and your feedback will help shape what it becomes.
