"The dates of this performance correspond to the month of Frimaire in the Republican Calendar that was introduced in France after the French Revolution. This calendar established a new chronology and was an effort to sweep away history and a centuries-old religion-centred organisation of time. The seven-day week was replaced by a new ten-day decimal week called a 'décade', with ten-hour days and 100 minute hours."--Artist's website.
