The legend of Horacio reached mythic proportions and his reach expanded significantly when XEW television channel offered him a 2-hour, Saturday afternoon time slot to perform a major, never before attempted feat: making the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan disappear for two minutes. There was build up for nearly 90-minutes, with legendary sportscaster Pedro Septién doing a play by play as Horacio and his team prepared in the background. When it was time, there was silence for several minutes, and then rumbling as nothing was happening. Then, suddenly, the great pyramid faded away, and only the blue sky remained. Two minutes later, it returned, and hundreds of people rushed to the top to make sure it was still there. To this day, no one knows how he pulled it off.
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.
