FOT

Recent events in the long and illustrious history of Festival Object Trading (FOT) are here recorded. Customers, according to established traditions, used the FOT Exchange Rate Mechanism to add FOT currency to an object of their choice, which could then be used to purchase from a long list of Products, Events and Services. These Products, Events and Services include legal services, the world-renowned Mate Peg(TM), a Giraffe Stamp Licking Service, Festival Alarm Call Services, Festival SMS, the fantastic Sombrero Self-Portrait service, and the Lovers’ Cigarrette.

There will be text, drawing, ephemeral evidence of passage, at least I think there will be and that’s how I’m planing it at this stage.
