I watched it the other night. I liked it and I love the way he articulates the singularity but I feel that many parts could have been left out. Inspiring none the less

Watched it last night -- he does describe these ideas very well but the bit about believing he'll be able to resurrect his father based on the details he remembers of him is very sad, and I think that a lot of his bolder predictions come more from his fear of death than anything else.

Also, it's true what they say that the Singularity is the Rapture for nerds :lol:

Still, interesting documentary! He has a fictional movie coming out soon called The Singularity is Near that expands on a lot of this material.

Yeah while i dug the movie, i totally agree with what you said, the dude certainly has some attachment issues clouding his judgement. Im a huge transhumanism fan tho and i hope the pace of tech keeps increasing like he proposes. It would be interesting to witness. :vaped:

I love how nobody can call him a crackpot for these outlandish theories that within 25 years we'll technically have the ability to be immortal due to our increased understanding of and advancements in nanotechnology and the human body, as he has made predictions about/based on popular trends in technology for the past decade or 2 that have come to indeed be true.

I do think 25 years is a stretch. Possibly 40-50?

Although I support transhumanism fully, and belive that what that man has to say is spot on; That movie fucking sucked. Huge disappointment. Waited hella long for it too.

I wish it were a movie. It's just a painting I felt related to some of the ideas in Transcendent Man.

Found something from the artist just now.
Quote:

Artist's Comments
This is one failed...entry to Uplift Universe CGS Challenge. I just couldn't decide to join the contest because of tons of work on my desk and besides it - I just installed brand new doors in our flat But once I joined the challenge I did produce two images.Here's the first one as a result of some questions been on my mind while reading some fragments of Brin's book here on CGS (my copy of book is on the way) I wonder if the book will answer my questions ,I doubt it but we will see about that. One of these question is are we happier Uplifted (considering we've been uplifted by some inteligent civilization,god or whatever in our past ) personally I think I could be much more happy if I were just left alone in the middle of grassy green field with my love just as we been created. Ok we have another story here , two theories of creation and eveolution been struggling for years -who has right? in my opinion one doesn't have to exclude the other - we could be engeenered to evolve from monkeys to homo errectus then "created" to intelligent homosaphiens,that way the theory of God's creation is a missing link in ..eveolution theory's missing link ... there you go , the mistery of all times been explained ,from now on the God and Science walks the same path ..he he Am I crazy , talking rubbish ? SURE -but what the hell , after all questioning our existence is the main reason for life...plus those which already been explained by "Month Python's flying circus" .. " And I looked, and, behold, a stormy wind came out of the north, a great cloud, with a fire flashing up, so that a brightness was round about it; and out of the midst thereof as the colour of electrum, out of the midst of the fire. And out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance: they had the likeness of a man." Ezekiel 1:4-5
