There is something special about science fiction. What can be imagined today can eventually be turned into reality in the near future. Some of the classic examples include robots, envisioned by Isaac Asimov and the tricorder from Star Trek, both are a reality now. The progression of technology in the coming days, powered by blockchain among other technologies is not really too far-fetched when it comes to the new upcoming television series titled Singular.

According to a press release, the blockchain entertainment studio, as S-DTV calls itself will be producing its maiden television show starting October 3, 2016.

S-DTV has planned for Singular to run for two complete seasons, with one season set from 2020 onwards till 2030, which will be followed by the second season that will be sent in the following decade. Overall, the whole storyline of Singular is set to take place between 2021 till 2045 AD. The production studio will also make use of this television series as a use case to develop its rights management system.
The Singular television series will be filmed in the New York City, Puerto Rico and Panama.
