Austrian artists' "Experience the Experience" tour coming to USA

My friends at Monochrom, the crazy Austrian net.artists, are doing an American tour this summer based around the uniquely American concept of "experiences" (dining experiences, Disney experience, the Ground Zero experience). Here's a sample Experience the Experience project that they'll be putting on:

Experience The Experience Of Being Buried Alive

The people present will have an opportunity to be buried alive in a coffin for fifteen minutes. As a framework program there will be lectures about the history of the science of determining death and the medical cultural history of "buried alive". People buried alive not only populate the horror stories of past centuries, but also countless reports in specialized medical literature. The theme of unintentional resurrection by grave robbers also runs through forensic protocols. Even in the 19th century it was said that every tenth person was buried alive. No wonder that the fear of this fate was immense and led - especially in the German-speaking region - to all kinds of precautions to avoid it. Various death test methods were developed, for instance. "Security coffins" with bell pulls and air hoses were patented; mortuaries were built, in which corpses were left for days to natural decay. (Vancouver, Los Angeles, San Francisco)
