Every day, at 4:33, an orchestra of 433 people or 4 groups of 33 people if you can't find enough, perform 4'33" in strict silence (as it should be).

If you can find a place with the number 433 on the front, and perform outside it then that's another layer of 4-33ness you can add to the mix.

       Or they could just perform once a year on 4/33 i.e. 5/02. Oops! Too late this year!
  

       There could be a revival in April or May of 2033.

       Thanks, [csea]. I was going to post a link when things got a little busy here.

       Some of us actually work, your lordship.   

       How's unemployment in your private country?

       Seeing as it's silent, how do you know this doesn't already happen?

       Exactly. How do YOU know I'm not already doing it?
