Come and see. You will feel drawn and empty at the same time. This small boat will give you the impression of the right dimension.

We are granting Copernican centrality to a purple paper ship named Caron Dimonio.
This boat is a reflection on the conscience, to realize the just dimension of the values ​​we carry forward.

The virtual journey to the right dimension is carried out with a ticket of 500 €, series X01549305137, with code R003E4, printed in Germany, with certificate of authenticity and holographic stamp.
The ticket is unique and registered in EuroBillTracker (EBT), a non-profit organization that is dedicated to tracking Euro banknotes around the world, to maintain traceability. The 500 euro bill is the most expensive in the world, is in danger of extinction and represents the totem of humanity today.

Power is changing. It is no longer in the hands of individuals, as underlined by Moises Naim, “Today does not have as much power as the president of the United States, nor the director of the New York Times.” Today the liquid system, global and without control, without global courts, without global political power, without global rights, is in the hands of the far west economic and financial. There is no room for reflection. There is no time.

The otium, which is the essential condition for creation, is not valued. Everyone runs, produces. But nobody knows where we are going. There is no vision. There is no helmsman. No one and nothing seems to stop the global system. Politics – which is the pursuit of the ends of society – has remained at an administrative or bureaucratic level. “The world is in the hands of corporations,” says Noam Chomsky, who continues: “Corporations have as their sole objective, by definition, to multiply their revenues and revenues.

Automatically the corporate goal became the goal of the human being. ” The γνῶθι σεαυτόν apolineo is unknown. The consequence is to ignore the essence, hindering the ability to realize what is happening in reality. 

The details of the images propose us: The constellation of EURion.
The ink is visible under ultraviolet light, as a guarantee of authenticity, as well as security thread, all in pure cotton fiber. The purple color schemes show the modern architecture of the late twentieth century as motifs of fictitious monuments from different architectural eras.
