Cognitive Expansion Network

Name: Cognition Expansion Network (CEN)
Concept: MMI/MXI researchers

Description: The CEN is a group dedicated to adapting to Gaia, by means of eliminated the boundaries between the human and their tools. Using Mind-Machine Interfaces and other cybernetics, CEN researches allow humans to directly interface with machines, and possibly control them as extensions of their body. Their final goal is to create humans that are greater than the sum of their parts, able to expand and change their existence through interfaces.

The Vectors have opened up a whole new echelon of human-expansion research among the CEN, as well. Biologists as well as cyberneticists, CEM has begun to research Mind-Xenoform Interface - the ability to link with Vector-based technology, notably Fractals and hybrid humans. Excursions into Vector-heavy regions are popular, and the CEM analysts search eagerly for new planetary discoveries.
