Sony's Mechanical "Heart" Strikes Fear in our Blood Pumps

Filed under: Art

Sony has produced what can only be described as a frighteningly awesome "mechanical heart" built for ads that will be aired during England's World Cup qualifying campaign. The heart was created by the special effects group Artem and is built from Sony TVs, DVD players, cameras, and even Walkmans. It looks like Sony has rediscovered that "fear factor" that has been missing from our latest medical devices.
