Yossel, age 25, passed into the great silence suddenly and unexpectedly on August 20, 1999.
Johannes Claerbout was the creator of Yossel's toessels.
Johannes is pronounced Yohannes, rhyming with Yossel's toessels.
He usually called himself Jos Claerbout.
He appeared on the entrance page of his toessel web site and as the model Jos-E-Jos.
