THE CUBE is a one-to-one scale construction game which sets its own rules for living during a weekend. It encourages creativity exploring new social behaviours; A framework for immediate emulation between people and space, each CUBE is built upon four basic principles: interaction, freedom, informality, unpredictability. Players design, build themselves, and live in their constructions. Each CUBE is different; designed and built in the context of location, place and participants. Its life span: two days. After deconstruction, what is left behind is memories, shared experiences, gained knowledge or even potential friendships.
