Kotaku • • technology
Key Points:
- Sega is celebrating Sonic the Hedgehog's 35th anniversary by unveiling a life-sized statue of Sonic that reportedly contains his "DNA" encapsulated within a Chaos Emerald.
- The project was created in collaboration with Transeeds, a collective of artists, engineers, and scientists known for blending art and science in unconventional ways.
- The so-called Sonic DNA includes fictional elements like "Sonic biOS," "Emerald vision," and "velocity cells," making the scientific authenticity highly dubious.
- The Chaos Emerald containment system inside the statue is designed to resemble the iconic mosquito in amber from Jurassic Park, emphasizing the artistic and playful nature of the installation.
- The statue and its contained "DNA" will be on display to the public at Sega Store Tokyo starting June 23rd.
