The Ziggurat of Monte d'Accoddi

Coinciding with the Autumnal Equinox, the Mysterious Blue Rider climbed the Ziggurat of Monte d'Accoddi in Sardinia, Italy. A series of films has been made based on this performance and a related event at the NATO communication centre at the nearby Monte Limbara, also on Sardinia.
