As soon as I arrived at the Area Sacra di Largo Argentina in the sultry Roman evening and looked down into the ancient ruins, I experienced something like an LSD-induced time warp: Bedouin ->-bleeped-<-s had taken over four ancient temples dating from the fourth century BC. "It is a discotheque!" exclaimed an Italian passerby as he looked upon the colorful, pulsating encampment below. His female companion said, "It is not possible!" But there it was: Eli Sudbrack's assume vivid astro focus collective was making its debut in Rome. Flashing neon hieroglyphs adorned the walls of the Temple of Juturna, and a multicolor projection bathed the columns of the oldest temple, devoted to fertility goddess Feronia.
