it's almost as ugly as the imicus.

I would have made him nude and greek-esque and pissing into a fountain.

Terrible I could understand. But I don't understand this.

Especially given the placement of the numbers.

Still more convincing a representation of Jobs than that Ashton Kutcher movie...

Welp, there is at least some art even I can't defend.

It's HORRIBAD and unbelievable.

Reminds me of the carving of Hammurabi, especially with the objects that some consider to be a 1 and a 0.

Completely agree. It reminds me of that joke... "14 million sperm, and you're the one that won?!?"

It's as repulsive as this embarrassing memorial to Martin Luther King Jr.

Even the national one in Washington DC is one step away from Kim Jong-Un.

a 1 and 0 to represent the stuff inside the phone that Jobs had no interest in while he made sure the casing was pretty.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.

I knew he wasn't dead.

Imicus serves a purpose though.

I would have made him nude and greek-esque too, but I would have the statue pissing into the mouths of every idiot that ever bought a Apple product.

I think steve rolled over in his grave on this one. Apple should melt that thing down and recycle it for iphone parts.

lol looks like he stole a house address and stuck the numbers on it. Missing a cup holder too, sadly.

Not visible in the picture: A tiny bunny in Steve Jobs´ ear.

I also like the € symbol on the upper right of the statue.
Rather fitting, I would say....
