Worth Reading?
Call me Lord Cynical from the planet of Scepticism, but Mario Bellini’s CUBOGLASS TV does look pretty much like a TV in a shiny glass box rather than a whimsical and attitude-shifting ironic art piece. I guess art lets you neglect to mention certain traditionally important details, too, like the screen size.
Still, we know it’s 19kg and measures 38.2×34.4×38.5cm. The specs read a little like a electropunk novel:
- Black matrix tube
- wide band speaker
- tuning in digital frequency synthesis
- 100 programs and all TV channels
- video ports : SCART, SVHS…
Is it worth €950 ($1195.29)? Someone obviously thinks so, as it’s currently out of stock.
