Uncorporealism

‘Uncorporealism’ is a synonym for uncorporealization, as well as a name for the process causing uncorporealization and for the support for, or advocacy of, uncorporealization. ‘Uncorporealization’ is the unbecoming of the reliance on the corporeal, such as of the human, through a becoming reliant on the uncorporeal, such as the machinic. Greater uncorporealization is a lessening of the need for the body (or the corporeal in general).
Uncorporealism is one of the chief trends in history, since it is a chief factor in the adoption of technology, which emancipates humans and other corporeal beings (such as cats) from types of corporeal activity such as hunting for food. Uncorporealization is advocated for by some transhumanists, in the extreme of which some believe the mind can be uploaded to a computer. Uncorporealization is the chief effect in some becomings of cyborg, such as in using a device to enable a blind person to see or transporting the body by autonomous vehicles. While mechanization is typically uncorporealistic, uncorporealization differs from mechanization and even tool use in that it is more fundamental, since using heat from a hot spring to heat the body relieves it of work but does not rely on the machinic, as well as floating in the Dead Sea which relieves it of burden.
The human body becomes increasingly more useful purely as a heat sink 
for inhuman production, and is accordingly cast (almost definitively in 
first-world countries, and soon in the rest of the world) in roles that 
aren’t physical.— n1x o31-18Uncorporealization features in many works of fiction, such as Science-fiction.
