Ben Zeller is Professor of Religion at Lake Forest College. He has long been interested in the intersection of religion and science, having published several books and articles on topics ranging from science and new religious movements, to religion and belief in UFOs, to religion and technology. He has also taught and published on religion and science fiction, and has been fascinated by how both religion and science fiction trace the limits of humanity and the interface between human, superhuman, nonhuman, and the technological. In addition to serving as Project Director, Zeller is teaching a new class on Religion, SciFi, AI, and Non-Human, looking at questions of what is means to be a person, and the nature of the self, consciousness, and the supernatural within the context of the rise of A.I.
