On Sunday, August 31, 2025, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, watch the compilation stream of two presentations delivered by U.S. Transhumanist Party Chairman Gennady Stolyarov II at the Vanguard Scientific Instruments in Management (VSIM) conferences in 2023 and 2024. Mr. Stolyarov presented virtually at those conferences, which were held in Ravda, Bulgaria, and were hosted by Professors Angel Marchev, Sr. and Angel Marchev, Jr. These presentations will be prefaced by brief introductory remarks from Mr. Stolyarov based on the updated situation as of August 2025. Mr. Stolyarov will also be presenting at the VSIM-2025 Conference on September 9, 2025, where his presentation will be titled "The Progress of Artificial Intelligence and Why Humans Will Not Be Made Obsolete Anytime Soon". VSIM-2023 Presentation: What Needs to Happen to Save Civilization by 2025 - Presented on September 9, 2023 This presentation discusses how human civilization has continued to move through the uniquely existentially risky period in human history, the Great Filter, and what would events need to happen in order to dramatically lower the level of existential risk faced by humanity as well as stave off a long-term decline of contemporary global civilization, similar to the decline faced by the Roman Empire in the aftermath of the Antonine Plague of 165-180 CE. VSIM-2024 Presentation: Overcoming Polarization Through Transhumanism - Presented on September 11, 2024 This presentation addresses the destructive consequences of the totalizing polarization that has increasingly afflicted Western, and especially American, societies. The toxic ideologies of Left and Right have seeped into almost every area of life and have turned everyday life into a perpetual conflict zone. However, the ideas of transhumanism and its up-wing, inclusive vision for the progress of all of humankind, offer an antidote to the polarization and an invitation to build the next era of civilization together. The stream will be concluded by a Musical Q&A where the following compositions by Gennady Stolyarov II will be played: - Tenacity, Op. 5 (Remastered by Jason Geringer) - Composition for Harpsichord and Piano, Op. 50 (Remastered by Jason Geringer) - Escalation, Op. 53 (Remastered by Jason Geringer) - Progress Amidst a Crisis, Op. 66 (Remastered by Jason Geringer) - Rondo #5, Op. 72 (Remastered by Jason Geringer) - Waltz #8, Op. 71 References Website of the VSIM-2025 Conference: https://vsim-conf.info LEV: The Game on Longevity Escape Velocity - https://transhumanist-party.org/lev-the-game/
