Manifest:
“Come and witness the public trial of the year. The people of Delfshaven, Rotterdam, are fed up with these migrants. We know that in the second half of the 20th century, Europe was being flooded by male migrant workers who were stronger than men on the European mainland. Afterwards came their wives. And then, they had babies. And their babies had babies. Babies cry. Some loud. It is with wrath that Delfshaven's residents witnessed the birth of a place called The Niteshop in January 2021. People were intrigued by the dark mystery of The Niteshop and its space in time; meanwhile, futuristic plans for the people of Delfshaven are being drawn by outsiders.
With the arrival of The Niteshop came noise. Lots of noise. People talking loud. People laughing loudly. People dancing loudly. People crying, loud. Like babies thu. The people of Delfshaven have had enough of these babies. They are too busy caring for their own babies. Looking after another baby is simply too much. They can't bare it anymore. Enough is enough!
On Friday the 3rd of MARCH 2023, these babies will be put on trial. Over the course of 30 minutes, we shall witness who's laughing now but will be crying later. On this particular evening, it is estimated that a hundred thousand billion people will tune in to the live stream trial of the year. Bring Your Own Popcorn (BYOP), the future is at stake.”
