The first manifestation of the K Foundation was a series of adverts in UK national newspapers (both in the magazine supplements of the quality broad sheets and in the tabloid press).
The K Foundation destroyed their copy of the film – they felt that the public had to have faith that the burning had taken place.

In 1993 the K Foundation subverted the Turner Prize Awards by simultaneously awarding the winner, Rachael Whitread, their own prize of £40,000 [twice that of the Turner prize] for the worst body of work.

They wanted to offer the £1,000,000 piece Nailed To The Wall to the Tate as the "1995 K Foundation Bequest to the Nation" but this was later rejected on the basis that they couldn't flmail the Tate as they had Rachael Whitread.

 BBC - h2g2 - The KLF - the Band
Drummond, wearing a kilt, hobbled around the stage supported by one crutch, got the lyrics wrong, and ended the performance by firing a machine gun into the audience (it is believed that the gun was loaded with blanks, not live ammunition, although this has never been officially confirmed).
The Tate said it was a security risk, despite the K Foundation pointing out that they would immediately make a profit of a quarter of a million which they could use to buy some 'real' art.
The K Foundation also recorded the odd piece of music, the most important of which was the recording of a single with the Red Army Choir, K Cera Cera (War Is Over If You Want It), which was released only in Israel to commemorate the peace process in the Middle East.
