About this Event

What if you could be augmented physically until you reached practical omniscience? Would you be willing to give up such power to save humanity? Spinning Blue Empties is a science fiction novel that examines what it means to be God, what it means to be human, and what form redemption takes if you are both the god and the human seeking it. 🌎
