It's been pointed out that for the state banking authority the fire did absolutely nothing. Firstly, it's rounding error noise to the economy. Secondly, even ephemeral evidence of which notes got destroyed in some circumstances would legitimate taking a bundle off the shelf and giving it to them. Money is strange. For the central bank, it exists when they say it does and not when ink hits paper at the printery.
Economics and the $1trillion note come to mind.
I think I've read comments that the K foundation people can understand that some poor scots don't appreciate what they did as a statement facing systemic poverty in Scotland.
Performance art almost always has to lie in the margins. The film isn't art, it documents a performance. The music is art, even if they deleted the catalogue. Deleting the catalogue was performative, but personally I don't think it's art.
I get the sentiment of the poster elsewhere here who points out it's boring to only talk about the money fire and Ozzie's bat, or the Gallagher brothers spitting contests or Dylan's Albert hall gig or a million other lacunae, rather than the art. So I'll stop.
