FAQs
WHAT IS A TELEMUTE?

When two living organisms teleport together their molecules merge during rematerialisation into a single genetic code, creating a mutated form called a Telemute. 

HOW DO I CREATE A TELEMUTE?

1) Smash that hand icon on the telepod panel, or just hit the Teleport button in the header or on the page.
2) Upload a selfie (you gotta look good for this one) - we’ll make sure it’s an experience worth it! BTW: We never store or share your pics.
3) Activate teleportation by pressing the button and buckle up for the ride!

CAN I UPLOAD ANY HEADSHOT OF ME?  

In theory yes. You can upload any headshot, but if you want it to really shine, definitely follow our tips above for the best results.

CAN I USE PICS OF OTHER PEOPLE?

Nope! Especially if you don’t have their permission or the rights to do so. Check out our T’s & C’s for the full scoop. This site is all about fun, so be cool, be kind, and remember — don’t be a douche!

WHY SHOULD I TIP?

This service is 100% free, but we’re just a couple of creators hustling to keep the dream alive, and not some mighty corporation.  If you’re enjoying what you’ve seen so far, there’s so much more we want to reveal.  Any donation you care to give is seriously appreciated. This really is the start of something epic! (TIP here).

IS TELEMUTATION DANGEROUS?

Absolutely! Most Telemutes don't survive the process. Those that do often have severe disabilities, poor brain function, and short lifespans, or are euthanized by Beamers.

WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO BECOME A TELEMUTE?

There are a few reasons:
1. People desperate for a fresh start and willing to take the plunge.
2. Those who are obsessed with being unique.
3. Patients with telemutopia. (An obsession to teleport with another other living organism).
4. Most Telemutes happen because of accidents, coercion, or mental health issues.
5. Criminals have been known to attempt telemutation to change their identity or DNA.
6. Some Telemutes come out of the gate with next-level capabilities. These are rare!  We call them Sentients. They're not just cool —they’re legendary. But hey, not everyone makes the cut. Sentients are like unicorns — hard to find, but totally worth it.

HOW COME CLOTHES AND JEWELRY DON’T FUSE WITH THE BODY DURING TELEPORTATION?

Biological and non-biological matter are sequenced differently, so they remain separate and rematerialise just as they were.

ARE ALL TELEMUTES THE SAME?

Nope, not even close. Quantum entanglement is a wild ride. Telemutes generally fit into four categories:
- Meatballs: Yeah, you guessed it – they’re immobile, fully blended, and super unrecognizable. 99.9% dead on arrival, and gross. 
- Morphs (aka: Merges): Formed but usually disabled. Barely recognizable. They rarely keep full human emotions or intelligence. 70% dead on arrival. 
- Sentients: Perfect morphs with all the feels. They look almost alien and some have cool abilities that can outshine humans. Very rare and totally boss.
- Kysapiens: Classified – Top Secret. Government clearance required. Sorry!

WHY IS TELEMUTATION ILLEGAL?

Uh… yeah, in case you haven’t noticed, this whole thing is super dangerous. Most attempts? Fatal. There's also a theory floating around that Telemutes could end up with some crazy diseases that are seriously bad news for humans.

WHEN WAS TELEPORTATION INVENTED?

Teleporting kicked off on September 30, 2037, when a bunch of students and scientists at Nottingham University managed to zap a single grain of sand across campus. Fast forward to February 8, 2040, and boom – Uno a field mouse became the first living creature to teleport, rematerializing in a lab in Latvia.

ARE YOU AGAINST THE USE OF ANIMALS FOR TESTING?

Let’s be clear: we’re 100% against anyone using animals for testing. Full stop. And yes, that includes all of you risking animal lives to make Telemutes. We see you!
