Ask anyone, one is enough of me. I would have probably said the same thing myself until I stumbled upon this gem.
Twinkind is a new startup from Germany that has very cleverly perfected the method to turn yourself, friends, family, pets or anything you can think of really into very cute little replica statues. Kristina Neurohr and Timo Schaedel, the founders of Twinkind have developed the system which photographs a subject at 360-degrees in the blink of an eye (don’t blink) and bobs your uncle, in no time at all you’ve got a travel-sized inanimate replica, or ‘mini-twin for life’ as I’d put it.
I guess when I look back through time it becomes quite obvious. The Egyptians mummified themselves, pet taxidermy certainly had its day and Death Becomes Her is one of my favourite films; so it seems relatively obvious then given the latest technological advancements in 3D printing that I should have a wonderful little figurine of myself at the ready for my eternal legacy, right?
