NOT monopoly money: Here's something not many people will know, except for those living in Scotland (like me) or those that visit (vital tourist information here). You can get £ 1 notes in Scotland issued by the Royal Bank of Scotland. In fact, these notes "have an unusual status" because they are outlawed in England but not in Scotland. RBS just keeps printing them and punters keep on using them. So if you do come to Scotland, let's hope you happen to get one of the notes, look at them in awe and make sure you spend the notes before you leave. People beginning from Leeds down won't accept them and Banks in Europe have never even seen such a thing and might just call the police on you. (post #1 in the Scotland series) Link
monochrom is an art-technology-philosophy group having its seat in Vienna and Zeta Draconis. monochrom is an unpeculiar mixture of proto-aesthetic fringe work, pop attitude, subcultural science, context hacking and political activism. Our mission is conducted everywhere, but first and foremost in culture-archeological digs into the seats (and pockets) of ideology and entertainment. monochrom has existed in this (and almost every other) form since 1993.
