Astor Place Cube and LED Throwies
An East Village institution since it was placed in Astor Place in 1968, this rotating sculpture (’The Alamo’ by Bernard Rosenthal) has proved a magnet to skaters, punks and goths.
In 2003, pranksters turned it into a Rubik’s cube while students made their own cube after the original was sent off for repair in March 2005.
After they wrote a message of solidarity with Borf, we let loose with a few hundred of the little gizmos. A crowd gathered and was really into it. A group of 7-or-8 year old kids started picking the throwies off the cube and throwing them back again. At one point a belligerent touristy guy demanded to know what the point of this spectacle was and his wife yelled, “Oh Harold! Shut up and throw the thing already!”
