Allow me to add in an extract from the film “The Cube” which addresses this point

WORTH

It’s maybe hard for you to understand, but there’s no conspiracy. Nobody

is in charge. It’s a headless blunder operating under the illusion of a masterplan.

Can you grasp that? Big brother is not watching you.

QUENTIN

What kind of fucking explanation is that?

WORTH

It’s the best you�re gonna get. I looked and the only explanation I can

come to is that there is nobody up there.

QUENTIN

Somebody had to say yes to this thing.

WORTH

What thing? Only we know what it is.

QUENTIN

We have no idea, what it is.

WORTH

We know more than anybody else. I mean somebody might have known

sometime, before they got fired or voted out or sold it. But if this place ever had a

purpose, then it got miscommunicated or lost in the shuffle. This is an accident, a

forgotten propetual, public, worksproject. Do you think anybody wants to ask

questions? All they want is a clear conscience and a fat paycheck. I mean, I lead on

my desk for months. This was a great job!

QUENTIN

Why put people in it?

WORTH

Because it’s here. you have to use it or admit it’s pointless.

QUENTIN

But it is pointless!

WORTH

Quentin… That’s my point.
