Survival Virus de Survie counterstamped itself on Bank of Canada notes. The serial numbers of all contaminated specimens were recorded in a journal and subsequently entered in a specially designated data bank. The bills were then returned to circulation. Survival Virus de Survie has propagated itself from 1991 to 1999. The video contains all the serial numbers of the SVdS project; The wood blocks made of maple are the actual physical space (thickness of currency X n) of the project (from L to R) $2, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100; The vitrine is the final presentation of the project, which also included the rubber stamp, some banknotes and the note binder.
