PTOLEMAIC PRODUCTIONS

Projects

Here are a few of the projects we're working on at Ptolemaic Productions:

  • TRANSCENDENT MAN (in production)

    Transcendent Man is a feature length documentary film about the life and ideas of renowned inventor, futurist, and author Ray Kurzweil (The Age of Spiritual Machines, Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough To Live Forever, The Singularity is Near). It is being produced by husband and wife team, Barry and Felicia Ptolemy, and will be released in 2009.

    The film begins by telling the story of Ray's early day's as an inventor, including his influences, successes and accolades, and eventually delves deeply into his astonishing predictions about the future, raising profound questions about our humanity, our divinity, and our destiny.  For more information on the Transcendent Man production, visit our Press page.
