Over the last couple months i've recieved several emails from people searching for a copy of the documentary featuring ray kurzweil called "Transcendent man". So what i will do is update the information as it comes. The film was screened at the tribeca film festival and is still in the theaters. You can find out where its being screened at the official transcendent man site. There is also a preview and some pics at this site.
I have been scouring the net daily for a downloadable version of the film for sale or for free and will update my blog with the link to the site when it becomes available. I usually update this blog at least every week or so as soon as i find it you will be able to find it. The other option is to sign up to my email list to the left of this post and you will receive the link for download instantly 100% free or catch me on twitter where i will also be updating my progress in finding the transcendent man torrent.

Update:
The torrent is now available. Click on the transcendent man image to the left of this post to get it for free as well as other Ray Kurzweil freebies.
No post since August. Any progress since then?
ReplyDeleteNone of the pirate torrent sites have a copy yet so it likely hasn't leaked publicly and it hasn't played in Vancouver Canada at this date. I want Ray's ideas and time frame to be correct very much, but I fear world politics and general stupidity will prevent them from rolling out in a timely manner.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the lack of updates guys. I have been traveling for the last 2 months. I have been scouring the internet and even a couple pay-per-torrent sites(waste of money by the way) for it with no luck. As soon as it becomes available i will post the link here.
ReplyDeleteHopefully it will come out before we reach the singularity, Ha ahahah hahahahh ahahah!
ReplyDeleteI guess even though the singularity is near, one can use some cash to live until it hits. Otherwise, why not to release your ideas to masses for free ?
ReplyDeleteYeah man! Where the h*ll is this documentary? Me too I've been looking for it since last year but no hope still ! Please someone buy it and upload the torrent for the rest of us. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI love the trailer at any rate...
ReplyDeleteThe exponential rise in technology doesn't seem to impact on film availability. The time it's taking to release this film mocks Rey's central theme.
ReplyDeleteThis is absurd. Why is this taking so long to release. Does anyone out there have some answers? Is this film ever going to be available?
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting, that if you search for "Kurzweil's new film" now, you are directed to "The Singularity is Near" which will be out soon.
Answers please, someone!

ReplyDeleteThis is driving me nuts. Somebody out there has a print lying around. Share it! The producers are taking so long to release this on DVD... by the time it's out, "The Singularity is Near" will already have been released. Way to shoot yourself in the foot.
ReplyDeleteDammit!
Last I heard, Transcendent Man had some difficulty being picked up for distribution and traveled the festival circuit for a while. I believe it will be released on DVD while Singularity is Near will show in independent theaters. There just isn't enough industry support for this kind of thing yet.
ReplyDeleteRay is a turd, he should get with the program and just release a digital version on his own site. I mean he's a genius, why rely on the dumbass traditional distribution channels.
ReplyDeleteAnyways I've been waiting for this movie so long, that's why I hate him so much... :P

ReplyDeleteThose who genuinely discover something which ultimately could shape the future of mankind do have a responsibility to share this knowledge with those it will affect.
ReplyDeleteOf course, he also has to think about how the government, or in the wrong hands, this could be perverted into some hellish creation.
But, as there is such balance in nature, those most gifted minds, are often the most flawed in the most basic of human capacities of compassion, common sense, and intuition.
People like these are social maladaptives, who get lost a few yards from their homes. It doesn't help to kinow how to extract the cube root of a 100 digit number in 43 minutes, when you can't figure out that releasing your film in 2009, and two years later, in 2011--no one is watching it yet; although you, the person who this documentary's about--could rip a screening copy and sell the AVC for $4.99 on Amazon, with full DRM protection...that is, if you're also a total anal retentive.
The resultant resentment will kill the enthusiasm, and it will flop!
