    Unveiled in Midtown Manhattan on May 5, 2021

    "The seated body is inspired by the ancient Temple of Zeus, while the head is based on masks and other sculptures from various African cultures, including Luba art and the Maasai religion. On the Oracle throne, there is the image of a lotus blossom"

    "Oracle...25 feet tall and weighing in at over 15,000 pounds....Delayed from a planned September debut, Wednesday’s unveiling was amazing just because of the sheer size and magnitude"

    "In the coming weeks, Oracle will also begin to live up to its name with the launch of an interactive component allowing viewers to consult the sculpture about their future....Visitors will be able to ask the oracle anything they want, and if the oracle is 'in', they’ll get a live response"

    Reminds me somehow of the MORLOCKS versus the Eloi in the movie The Time Machine
    The Morlocks (the crazed enraged hungry for destruction left), devoured the innocent and lovely Eloi (unsuspecting naïve right who had an abundance of good things), provided of course to them by the Morlocks, when they sounded the siren dinner horn, the Eloi came from wherever they were to be devoured.

    Notice it an Africanized stylized black sculpture, the message being wisdom and knowledge belongs to the black race, so this is a very racist idol.
    Of course idols are for idol worshippers.
