This project will protect an optimistic vision of the future, that has inspired so many and remains so important today,” said Rod Roddenberry.

OTOY’s work will allow generations to experience my father’s contribution to humanity with the greatest historical accuracy possible. “I cannot think of a more capable and innovative company to trust with these materials. The immediate benefit of the archive will be the ability to generate NFTs from the collection for Trek diehards, as well as offer the public life-sized hologram installations that promise to be “indistinguishable from reality” via Light Field Lab. The archive will span the flagship “Star Trek” series, original films, and subsequent spinoffs. The project will include key texts and documents from Roddenberry’s career (the show predicted tablet computers among many other gadgets, after all), as well as images, blueprints and models.

The effort will be formally announced at the annual Star Trek convention Creation in Las Vegas this Friday, by the Roddenberry estate and artists Denise and Mike Okuda, Doug Drexler and Daren Dochterman. The multimedia Roddenberry Archive will produce everything from holographic and digital renderings of the famous Starship Enterprise vessel to TV and movie sets. The life work of Gene Roddenberry, the creator of “ Star Trek,” will be meticulously captured and catalogued in a new digital archive from leading tech company OTOY.
