Performance art - Renaissance Fair

So I went to a renaissance fair and made a sign that said "Black Plague." For the entire fair I posed in different spots displaying my sign. Sometimes I would walk behind groups of people dressed like nobles and kings and queens. Peoples over reactions were funny and were mostly mad or happy. The technology is linked to modern medicine and how it has altered or saved many lives. While medicine was very primitive many people died because of the black plague. People do not really think how fragile life would be without the use of modern medicine. I hoped to invoke deep thought in medicine like how much does it really impact your life in the past, present or future and where would you be if you did not have access to medicine that is available today.

Here is the link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VCDAUC7D20
