A place for outcasts to pass unnoticed, where life rots, tyrants get decapitated, witches at the stake, small lines of blood travel between the cobblestones. After the fall of Spain, before the dawn and cradle of modern capitalism: multisided pilgrimage in awe of everything unnatural: eternal sunshine, steam columns from inderneath, amalgamated crowd equalized in foreignity: the way they are raised and killed and the people involved in the rules of eating them; primordial brutality less offensive than our day rituals and spectacles: in the farm, in the apartment, in the local workshop, at the site of the open roast and final feast, in video of deferred killing, at Anton de Komplein Square for scheduled tincan-phone session.
