His father, who worked so diligently to make Santa María a place of class, a place of dignity, would have been horrified at what it had become. Yet, as the community became more popular, attracting bigger and bigger crowds, Horacio the Magnificent’s fame grew with it. His shows grew in size and logistics, so he was able to hire a team to accompany him when performing. He sawed them in half. Made them disappear. Members of the audience were brought up on stage and they would become a part of it to roaring applause. He was swept away by the emotion of it all. He just let the music flow. He rode the wave of energy and went with it. Letting it take him wherever it leads. Shucking and jiving. Grooving and shaking. He was a bad turkey. Feeling it. Living it. In full color.

Santa Maria de las Rocas collection image

A novella by Nicholas Gill and Alejandro Cartagena.

A collection of 151 “expired photographs” that were thrown out, collected from a tianguis outside of Mexico City by photographer and archivist Alejandro Cartagena and then pieced together and reimagined by writer Nicholas Gill. The 151-page novella tells the tale of the fictional town of Santa María de las Rocas, located in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.

The story traces this coastal community from its humble origins at the turn of the century to the 1980s, as it corresponds to real events in the history of this corner of Mexico. As years pass, the landscape changes and the community grows and develops. There’s corruption and violence, magic and hope. Characters fall in love and fall apart. Their voices are heard. Their songs are sung.

The existence of this project is designed to question the very nature of storytelling and its possibilities in the digital age. As such, it’s done as a CO0, for free public use.
