Every city is an archaeological layer cake of demolition, decay and scandalous erection. The rise and fall of commerce spurs the reincarnation of spaces. Movie palaces are converted into tabernacles.

These mutated spaces funnel faded glory, waste and buried treasure; the voices of the past and interstellar space speak in gibberish. (MM)
