Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
Nineteen people including an unborn baby and its mother perished as the fire roared through the 50-year-old three-story structure. Thirty-six other people were injured and within 10 days six of them had died. At least nine victims were relatives of Humberto de La Torre. His uncle Mateo survived. Humberto de la Torre was arrested the following December in Texas, pleaded guilty to 25 counts of murder and in 1985 was sentenced to 625 years in prison.

There are 3366 births, 3926 deaths, 1121 murders, 497 disasters and 2076 other events about 5724 people in 6428 places until today.

 40-year-old performance artist Danny Devos aka DDV performs 'AARA' in About Café, 402-408 Maitrichit Road, Bangkok, Central Thailand, Thailand. I gave a lecture about my way of working and not-working within the safe context of cultural institutions. Then I cut the letters ‘AARA’ (About Art Related Activities) into my left upper arm and left. |
