Frank Theis searches for the scientific, ethical and metaphysical dimensions of technological development, and probes into the concept of transhumanism.
Technocalyps is a three-part documentary about the idea of transhumanism, seen through the gaze of visual artist and filmmaker Frank Theys. How do recent discoveries in the fields of genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, bionics and nanotechnology affect our everyday lives?

Merkle, Mark Pesce and Ray Kurzweil, amongst others.
