This completely creeps me out.

Continuing in the ‘just because you can doesn’t mean you should’ vein….

For the love of all that’s holy, no.

In an experiment, Vlasman created OSCAR, a
living, organic being formed from his own cells,
albeit one that functions with the help of tech-
nology. And if having a pocket-sized human
system crafted from organic material wasn’t in-
teresting enough, OSCAR is fully modular.
here’s where you can start thinking LEGO-like
worlds – with each part interchangeable to create unique arrangements.

In the video, recently unearthed by News-
break’s Andrei Tapalaga, Vlasman shows off
how his brain module, which is a fully electric
device, connects to his lung module. The two
immediately start interacting together. He adds
in a kidney module, and then attaches two dif-
ferent limb modules that “start actuating the or-
ganism to move.” As the organic matter starts
sliding across the table, it makes you start to
worry what OSCAR is up to.

When I read that, I thought… it can’t get any worse.

Then I saw the video and realized yes, it can.

And did.

If that doesn’t give you the heebie jeebies nothing will.
