''K Foundation Burn a Million Quid'' was an action that took place on 23 August 1994, in which the K Foundation (an art duo consisting of Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty) burned one million pounds sterling in cash on the Scottish island of Jura.

This money represented the bulk of the K Foundation's funds, earned by Drummond and Cauty as The KLF, one of the United Kingdom's most successful pop groups of the early 1990s.

The duo have never fully explained their motivations for the burning.

snaggy just watched them on the gay byrne show from the 90s


as they said

they only burned paper.


someone in the audience sid it couldve fed starving people.

but their point was

it was only paper


there were no more or no less loaves of bread before or after they burned the money.

the paper was only a representation of the money.


and they were trying to show how money controlled peoples thoughts and actions


deep but very true

''they were trying to show how money controlled peoples thoughts and actions''

None. Silly tw@ts... shouldv'e given it to charity...
