The girl with the blanket, by Chiara Fumai

In August 2008 Chiara Fumai spent 31 days of imprisonment in Cell A1C1 of the Oostereiland Penitentiary of Hoorn.

During her journey in Oostereiland the artist kept a secret correspondence with a mysterious man and produced some of her most important pieces, including a complex escape plan that would let her pass through the surveillance system in less than one hour. For the occasion Fumai spent most of her time sewing a 12 metre long escape rope, using fabric from the prison’s curtains and clothes from her wardrobe, but at one point, the development of the project left her with nothing to wear besides a brown Indian blanket provided by her friend Fred Martin.

Before escaping the prison on August the 30th the artist wrote a “Love Poem” about female sexuality during imprisonment, and left it in the toilet of Cell A1C1, where it still remains, as part of the Local Artistic Patrimony and viewable under appointment.

The people of Hoorn will always remember her as “The girl with the blanket”.

AA: Hi Rafaël, how have you been?
RR: Very good, so good,
better and better.
AA: Better than before?
RR: Definitely. I actually thought I was
happy before, but I fooled myself.
AA: You fooled yourself?
RR: I thought I was happy,
I really believed it,
so maybe I was.
But I’m so much happier now so how
could I have been happy at the time?
It’s hard to trust my own memory,
and it’s hard to measure my own
feelings. But I’m very sure
I’m happy now.

Big Long Now, an Atomic Activity Book

“An acquaintance of Hermann Ilg (contactee) who is employed with a
geological institute where also seismologic surveying takes place,
informed him that during the months of January and February, 1982, an
incredible observation has been made: /There was not the slightest
geological movement! /The apparatuses did not show anything for weeks!
This has not been the case as long as the apparatuses are in action,
because the Earth crust is in slight movement day after day. She asked
for an explanation from the /Spheres of Light/, and this was the answer:

“The extraterrestrials detected at the end of 1981, an increasing,
highly dangerous axial declination impending to evoke a hyperchaotic
condition. This is because of the rolling motion. As an immediate
counteraction, it was decided to place all available Mother Ships around
the whole planet in such a way that this was approximately in keeping
with the meridians. Through the emission of their powerful radiant
energy, the Earth was taken as into a vise. Thereby, the abnormal
rolling motion could be highly reduced, although not completely. Had
this not been done, there would not be a pole jump during the coming
entry of the Earth into the Monastic vibration, as expected, but there
would have been that pole changing which would have led to a total
devastation of our planet in 1982. So you see that in late 1981 there
was a highly dangerous situation.

In the same issue of the New Atlantean Journal, Allan J. Grise mentioned
that “scientists have announced the existence of the Great American
Fault Line, a vast mega-crack in the earth’s surface, that runs from
Seattle all the way to the lower reaches of the Appalachians, some 1700
miles long and 90 miles wide at places, indicating that most of us now
live near a major fault line.”
