Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
Inside, the space was lit by 100 burning candles. Through the window you could see the tied up bodies of me and Frank De Busscher, a pointed wooden stick placed between their bodies and the door. It took four hours, until all the candles were burned up. Johan Desmet made music with tapes and found footage sounds.
(28 December 1979)
There are 3385 births, 3950 deaths, 1122 murders, 498 disasters and 2085 other events about 5737 people in 6452 places until today.
