„Macchine Inutili trovano il loro motore nei fenomeni naturali, come spostamenti d’aria, sbalzi di temperatura, umidità, luce e ombra, ecc., assumendo l’aspetto di vita propria paragonabile al movimento delle erbe di un campo, al mutare delle nuvole, al rotolare di un sasso in un ruscello”.
(Bruno Munari)
“Macchine Inutili are inspired by natural phenomena, such as air movements, drops in temperature, humidity, light and shade, and they look as if they possessed autonomous life, like grass leaves moving in a field, clouds changing shape, or a stone rolling into a creek.”
