Page 55 - ERA VULGARIS SHOW CATALOGUE

CONCLUSION:

Era Vulgaris is a phrase used by the astronomer, mathematician

and musical theorist Johannes Kepler in 1615 to no longer refer

to the Christian religion in taking time into account. Voluntarily

or not Kepler introduces an interesting ambiguity because the

year zero insists on the same scale as the Gregorian calendar,

in a sort of question mark on the limits of pure sciences.

About four centuries later one of the most interesting DJs in the

underground panorama of the Mediterranean Trance-Progres-

sive decided to use Era Vulgaris as a pseudonym, unconsciou-

sly renewing its semantic ambiguity. The chemical psycho-

tropy veiled on the schematic rhythm in four quarters of the

electromagnetic beat of the subwoofers attracts bodies in the

ballroom, accumulated by heat dispersion, pushing them to

experiment unexpected forms of approach between cosmic

fragments. Ellipses, hyperbole and revolutions of the states of

consciousness modify space and time in a new evocative and

imaginative form of reality where it can happen to meet one’s

sister even though they are unique daughters, considering all

this as a natural fact. What is even more curious is that this

echo can be found in the writings of one of the most important

living scholars of quantum gravity, Carlo Rovelli, who defines

altered states as the most similar to the folds of elementary

space-time.
