Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
I spread out a sheet on the floor and threw pamphlets at the audience. On a small tv-monitor played an excerpt of a documentary on Holger Meins. I placed objects and books onto the canvas and the canvas turned into a prison cell. Then I took out several ingredients for baking: butter, sugar, eggs, flour, and also some earth from my Hole. I mixed everything into dough and baked 2 classic sand-cookies. I undressed to my underwear and force-fed myself violently to eat the cookies.

 Spree killer Alan Eugene Miller is executed by nitrogen hypoxia at the age of 59 in Holman Correctional Facility, Ross Road, Atmore, Alabama, United States. Miller's last meal request was for a hamburger steak, a baked potato and french fries. Miller’s final words were “I didn’t do anything to be in here” and “I didn’t do anything to be on death row”. |
