Transnumeralism/Transpythagoreanism
"Everything is number", mused Pythagoras...and indeed, he was right.
Thus, a reaction against this in an extreme postposthuman future (for I do not imagine such an achievement to be made in less than a million years): transnumeralism!
Transnumeralism, or transpythagoreanism: the prospect of breaking out of the infinite omnipresence and dominion of number. The exploration and artificial creation (if such phenomena do not exist naturally) of "regions, states, etc." where not even O, ∞ or anything in between exist at all. This takes us back to the infinity thought loop:
If infinity is infinite with all it's infinite meta-infinities, then it cannot be escaped from in the way a transhuman would from their old biology, or a space rocket would from the Earth. To actually break out from infinity would be a contradiction and would cause feedback, since if one broke out of infinity, they would end up back in infinity because infinity is infinite and includes the area outside of infinity...because it is infinite. Thus, cyclo-anarchic technology...*
And yet: Number/exo- or trans-number ---> duality ---> 2 ---> !
*Cyclo-anarchy: The future prospect of transcending from strange loops and feedback, be they physical, conceptual, ethical, et cetera, we are unable to escape from in our current forms in this current universe. Illustration: true cyclo-anarchy.
