Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

It is possible that Bonifatius was murdered but it cannot be confirmed by any known sources. It is clear that there was certainly a sense from the public of disgust at his reign as his body was dragged through the streets, stripped naked until it was left beneath Marcus Aurelius's statue in front of the Lateran Palace.
(20 July 985)

Saturday 17th of September 1983 (x) — Performance artist Danny Devos performs 'Now I am Death the Destroyer of Worlds - 2'.
This time I lay upside down in the grave with a chain attached to my feet. I was pulled out of the grave while films and slides about Robert Oppenheimer and death were projected onto me. In a microphone I repeated: “Now I am death the destroyer of worlds”. The sound of my voice was electronically distorted into an unearthly grinding and thundering by Paul Hurst.
