K2 Plant Hire Ltd. 31-10-1997
The stated aim of K2 Plant Hire Ltd is to inspire co-ordinate and
insure the construction of a pyramid. A solid pyramid. A pyramid
constructed of bricks. Eighty-seven million, two hundred and fifty
thousand bricks (roughly). A brick for every person born in the U.K
during the 20th Century. Whether they live for 90 seconds or 90
years. It will be approximately one hundred and fifty feet high, and
have a base width of approximately three hundred feet.
Its official name is The Great Northern Pyramid Of the People, or
commonly known as The People's Pyramid.
The construction of The People's Pyramid will cost the tax payer
nothing. All that is asked of the people of the U.K is to collect as
many abandoned bricks as they may have lying around in their gardens,
behind their dustbins, being used as a door stopper in their bog, or
any of those other places that lost bricks may be found.
One and a half bricks per person living in the U.K will be needed. K2
Plant Hire Ltd will collect the bricks and organise the rest. The site
for The People's Pyramid is yet to be announced, but it will not be in
the South East of England. Building will commence at the begining of
the 21st Century, when K2 Plant Hire Ltd will have the accurate birth
figure. It will be open to the public free of charge, twenty-four
hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year. You will be
able to do what you want with it. Climb it, paint it, polish it, eat
your sandwiches on it, or chip it away.
It will stand for as long as there is any of it left.
It will promote nothing.
Be sponsored by nobody.
And owned by everybody.
Further information, instructions and invitations will be added to
this site on a regular basis
and now there's nothing there. No site to be found at that address. I know you know this but I had an AWWWWWWWWWW moment. "Bless", I thought. Such cute ideas, such noble pretence, so much fun. What happened to all of that? It's got to be time for something cool and funny in the world. Fuck, the planet SUCKS at the moment. No fun at all "anywhere, anytime".
What can we DO?????? |
