Silent students demonstrate about nothing 

Students are planning a silent demonstration about nothing.

Organiser Gwynn Wick, a Plymouth University arts student, says she wants
to create "total stillness".

Ms Wick also wants protesters at Wednesday's demonstration to carry blank
banners.

She said: "It is really my attempt at getting people to realise that we
all have the right to believe in our own reality.

"Too often we are influenced by false information or opinionated
information, which can be extremely misleading.

"My opinion is that there is really no such thing as nothing, for nothing
is the absence of something.

"It is the idea behind something that is important and in order for the
general public to access the ideal world, total stillness is needed."

Ms Wick, 21, from Stockholm, studies at the Faculty of Arts and Education.

The protest will take about 45 minutes and follow a route from Topsham
Road to the top of South Street in the city centre, Devon Today reports.
