A utopian vision of the future: our cities are connected by a hyperloop, so we travel between the world’s metropolises faster than by plane. People communicate via 'Eau Télépathique', a fragrance that enables exchange of ideas without language barriers, and without words. Mars is reached by emission-free rockets, and also the arts blossom in the light of new horizons for humankind.

Indeed, the three members of Transhuman Art Critics – Emma Nilsson, Emil Schult and Lothar Manteuffel – are exploring the utopian qualities of the future in their respective disciplines, seeking out and strengthening possibilities for a balance between nature, science and the arts.


Founded in 2017 by Emma Nilsson and Emil Schult, the duo expanded to a quartet in 2019 thanks to Lothar Manteuffel and Max Dax and published their first EP 'Update The Future'. Transhuman Art Critics transformed again and since 2022 they are Emma Nilsson, Lothar Manteuffel and Emil Schult.

Lothar Manteuffel is a musician, composer and producer. He was a founding member of the groups Rheingold and Elektric Music.

Emil Schult is a poet, painter and musician. His reverse glass paintings are exhibited internationally. He is the co-author of numerous songs and the designer of many covers for groups such as Kraftwerk and Elektric Music.

Emma Nilsson is a musician, author and art advisor. She has worked as a gallery director and DJ for many years and has published several books.
