A Colossal Blog is the telling of my experience when spending 8 months in Rome without seeing the Coliseum. The text is a combination of practicalities to avoid its view, a record of anecdotes as a result of it, and some reflections about the artistic, psychological, philosophical, architectural, historical and spatial implications of the renounce to seeing something so present in Roman life.
