| 説明 | Mark ‘Spoonman’ Petrakis and I are developing a shadow puppet show we call ‘Ubu’s Dreams’.This short series of scenes stars Père Ubu, the hero of french poet Alfred Jarry’s surreal plays. In this show, Ubu is constantly dreaming, playing with archetypal characters from our collective unconscious.This week, we rehearsed a new version of Dream #15, featuring a big face, an operatic melody, as well as dancing lights, flowers and musical notes, using wooden shapes made with a laser cutter. See link below to see the full script.This 'making of' video shows what it looks behind the scenes, for the record. Mark read the script as the voice of Ubu, and we both moved puppets and props from behind the screen, holding them on thin vertical sticks. We placed a high-quality projector over our heads, to illuminate the top of the screen, so the show can be seen even in a crowded room where everyone is standing.We plan to continue this experiment through the summer and perform a first puppet show during our Dada exhibit at the Canessa Gallery in North Beach, from Nov. 3 to 12, 2016.I also plan to use some of these techniques with our lower and middle school students, for the Maker Art courses I will be teaching this fall.From shadow puppets to poetic robots, these interactive storytelling experiments have the potential to engage us at a deeper level and help us learn more about ourselves.View more pictures of this Magic Theater project on Flickr: flickr.com/photos/fabola/albums/72157664637863884Learn more about Ubu’s Dreams:bit.ly/ubu-dreams-pageLearn more about the Magic Theater project (originally called Théâtre Mécanique):fabriceflorin.com/2015/01/10/theatre-mecanique/ |
