Transenlightenment described the process of Conjoiners interacting with each other through the network of their wireless neural implants. It was a defining feature of Conjoiner society, influencing nearly all of its aspects, from daily communication, to processing information or doing mental work, or sharing emotions and impressions between each other.

As Conjoiners were one of the distinctive human factions based on a particular transhumanist ideology, the name seems to be a contraction for "transhuman enlightenment" or a similar term.
