Another weird idea that makes someone easily rich, this time from the head of a philosopher-artist. Because we buy anything.

These little boxes are made by the italian Michelangelo Roberti. Every piece is numbered, and there are 999 altogether. Every box costs 0,50 dollar more than the one before. So far, 60 is sold, and the next cube costs 90 dollars.

This contemporary piece of art is playing with human curiousity. In every cube there is something. But it can’t be opened, only by breaking it, so we have to destroy the piece of art to know what’s inside the wooden cube. To make it even more curiouser, the artist says on his website, that “another thing will happen when i will have sold all the cubes. For now i can only say that the “content” of the black cubes will change the meaning of my project.” The content only have sense while inside the cube. It losts its meaning if you open it.

What would you do?
