During the Vietnam War, in 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono held two, week-long Bed-In for Peace, in Amsterdam and Montreal, which were their non-violent ways of protesting wars and promoting peace.
Knowing their March 20, 1969 marriage would be a huge press event, John and Yoko decided to use the publicity to promote world peace. They spent their honeymoon in Room 702 at the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel for a week between March 25 and 31, inviting the world's press into their hotel room every day between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. After their other stunts, such as the nude cover of the Two Virgins album, the press were expecting them to be having sex, but instead the couple were sitting in bed—in John's words "like Angels"—talking about peace with signs over their bed reading "Hair Peace" and "Bed Peace". After seven days, they flew to Vienna, Austria, where they held a Bagism press conference; eating chocolate cake while inside a white bag.

Io sono fatto d'acqua, non ve ne potete accorgere perchè faccio in modo che non esca fuori.
Anche i miei amici sono fatti d' acqua.
Tutti quanti.
Il nostro problema e' che non solo dobbiamo andarcene in giro senza essere assorbiti dal terreno ma, anche, che dobbiamo guadagnarci da vivere.
Philip K. Dick

dallo spettacolo IO EDUARDO di Bruno Colella
video di Valeria Borrelli
(teatro Acacia Napoli)
Uno spettacolo dedicato al grandissimo Eduardo De Filippo, un insieme di frammenti del secolo scorso,
velocita' futurista e grandi contrasti...
una scena pensata come un quadro futurista con tre schermi asimmetrici in cui si alternano frammenti di fotografie
e Videoproiezioni ...
PS molto da lavorare
