The Autogrill liturgy

from Cities and Memory - remixing the world · host Cities and Memory

A surreal discovery in a deserted motorway service station in Lazio. Behind the gas pumps stands a small, post-modern chapel, empty and silent. Inside, hidden low-fi speakers broadcast a bizarre loop of farm animals (goats, roosters) and distorted Christmas carols. The recording captures the haunting reverb of this lonely, sacred space, where kitsch sounds and motorway melancholy collide in a glitchy, suburban liturgy.Recorded in Casalecchio di Reno (BO), Italy by Andrea Tondi.
