BiLog, notes from underground visual culture,
by Rub Kandy, travelling billboard, Rome sept 2011
Photographers: Carmelo Battaglia, Luca De Gennaro, Giorgia Fileni.
Thanks to: My psychedelic cameraman Angelo Sabatiello. Quentin e Tangui, who were in Rome to shoot the doc "Streetosphere". Ottavia J.E.H. Testaguzza for the translation. Federico, who worked at the file.
"Last September, in Rome, I printed a picture and put it as an advertising board on a van that traveled all over the city. The picture is a remix of the one that in the 90’s was printed on LSD blotters (decorated paper sheets, soaked in LSD and other, pre-cut in squares). Many of us have eaten that picture whose author is, probably, unknown."
*Note about the original picture: The man flying carefree on his bicycle is Albert Hofmann, inventor of LSD, portrayed during his most famous ride: when in 1943 he rode all the way home from his lab after taking a fix of his own invention.
