USELESS BOX
The Italian artist Bruno Munari began building "useless machines" (macchine inutili) in the 1930s. He was a "third generation" Futurist and did not share the first generation's boundless enthusiasm for technology, but sought to counter the threats of a world under machine rule by building machines that were artistic and unproductive.[1]

There was a minor error with the switch being unable to hit the toggle switch. This was due to the wires connected to the end of the toggle switch interfering with the surrounding box and making the switch itself lopsided. Therefore, as seen in the video, external aid was given to show the arms movement back down to the limit switch and turning the circuit off.
