The above black cube is a piece of conceptual art called “A Tool to Deceive and Slaughter” by artist Caleb Larsen. This is no ordinary black cube, However; it is perpetually selling itself on eBay. The box has a little computer inside, and as long as it’s hooked up to an internet connection, it checks eBay to see if it’s up for sale, and if it isn’t, automatically starts a new auction. The website will automatically forward to it’s latest auction. It’s a pretty interesting experiment, but whenever I look at it, I get a sinking feeling that we are seeing the first baby steps leading to a full on, future Cylon rebellion.

This is crazy! Did you read the posted contract?
yeah, it’s pretty nuts. I guess it wouldn’t really work without most of it
