CONTINUOUS "Pour se jouer 840 fois de suite ce motif, il sera bon de se préparer au préalable, et dans le plus grand silence, par des immobilités sérieuses." Vexations is a musical composition by Erik Satie with the instruction to repeat it 840 times. The score covers only one side of an A4 and the title translates to 'vexations'. Depending on the tempo they choose, the pianists will likely be busy for about twenty hours. PRACTICAL You are welcome continuously from 5:30 AM to about 10:00 PM (or later depending on the tempo, of course!) PAY WHAT YOU WANT Art belongs to all of us. That is why at De Langste Dag you determine the entrance fee yourself. Do you have a little more to spend? Then you help keep the threshold low for someone else. Thank you for your contribution! DISCOUNT MU.ZEE Upon presentation of a purchased ticket for De Langste Dag, you get a € 5 discount on your entrance ticket at Mu.ZEE. ABOUT THE LONGEST DAY From sunrise to sunset. Artists move in and between Mu.ZEE and KAAP in Ostend. Various performances, some continuous. One visible and loud, the other barely perceptible. The actions follow the rhythm of the sun, the tides, and the clock. It will be a long day, almost the longest. Only when the sun sets does the happening end... and the afterparty begins. ,
