Think of something very Belgian, other than french fries, possibly a painter and one of his most famous works.
Think of a good title for the project and counterfeit the famous work to express a simple concept: “belgian fries ’cause french are fake.”
Paint always different potatoes on the covers.
Step 3
Put the cassettes in a player and listen carefully.
When listening, always keep ears open. In case of fire, turn off the volume and return the tape to its case.
