Sat on the lawn at the MMCA in Seoul today from about 4-6pm. Around 5pm, an aproned chef cradling something in his arms walked out of a nearby restaurant and over to a wall, topped with black 기와 tiles, running along the street bordering the museum. It turned out he was holding food—he stood on his toes and reached up to neatly place eight single pieces of bread in a row on the tiles. When he was done he double checked his work for a brief moment, then quickly walked away without looking back. Maybe ten minutes later, a magpie flew down from a tree onto the wall and grabbed a piece of bread. Then another came down, then another.
