i reckon the box is the back of a shelving unit with holes for the connecting cables, love the way they match the dings in the building above!

In Belgium we have Jan Fabre, you find him with google. He used to cover complete buildings in blue from a french fointainpen "bic", he works a lot with former living things, covered the colons of a museum with raw ham, recently decorated a ceiling in the royal palace with thousands of green beetles, writes theatre, choreografy, paints. I'll check on Yves Klein.

Thanks for the Art Lesson. I checked the link and it was Blue. Now I know why.

"Yves Klein is renowned for his almost exclusive use of a strikingly resonant, powdery cobalt pigment, which he patented under the name “International Klein Blue,” claiming that it represented the physical manifestation of cosmic energy that, otherwise invisible, floats freely in the air."

What's an IKB, I checked the link but I am no wiser.

I have a network server at work called big blue but it's not as nice as this mat.

I think it's someone peaking out at you from the box.
