As his act began to lose its shine, Horacio could no longer keep Sammy “El Tigre” Velázquez, his longtime assistant. Sammy came from nothing and Horacio mentored him for years and knew how talented he was. He became a star in his own right and much of the show was his idea. Letting him go off on his own was a threat to his own career, yet he had little choice and wished Sammy no ill will. He found his act gimmicky and didn’t consider him a serious magician. A genius with inventions, Sammy designed a wooden box that could take in 14 swords while not killing the human inside of it. It was something he had been working on for years and it quickly became his signature feat. He became the talk of the town and was offered a residency at the Gran Hotel, long a dream of Horacio.

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.
