Abstract
What would we do in Utopia? Imagine that technology makes it completely unnecessary to do anything as a mere means of achieving something else. What would we still think it worth doing? Thinking about these questions helps us approach the concept of the ideal of human existence. Bernard Suits' Grasshopper argues that what we would do in Utopia is play games, but it seems likely that this is too little to constitute a satisfying ideal. However, with the help of various ideas taken from Bob Adams, this chapter argues that other things will remain worth doing in Utopia as well; for example, enjoying the beautiful, contemplating the basic truths of the universe, being creative, and maintaining meaningful relations with others.
