Yesterday we timetravelled to Seattle and performed at the "Pickled Puppet Sideshow" held at the Lee Centre for the Arts.
Highlights include>>
-Beau Bond's brilliant and articulate designed faces>> farm3.static.flickr.com/2230/1...e9f.jpg
-Jenelle Weidlich's well crafted papier maché "Cantankerous Gran'ma"
-Dr. Andy Hubble's Crucible of Authenticity and his use of wire for shadowpuppety jerky and coughing movements.
-Dr. Calamari and Acrophelia's acrobalance tragedy>> www.circuscontraption.com/peeps...6.html
-Briam Kooser's Drunkula and Day in the Life of a Tree>> www.briankooser.com/
yipee! westcoast puppeteers network is ever expanding.....
~~~
then after the show....we shadowjammed late into the night at the Youngstown Cultural Arts Center in the Delridge neighborhood of West Seattle>> youngstownarts.org/
If you are ever in Seattle you must visit this innovative artist space!
~~~
I'm making a point to again start scrawling notes of what I remember from shadowjams right after they happen, because as those of you who have been to a shadowjam know, it can become very surreal and trance-like dream-time dadaist gooey deep stewing....brilliant!
so, here's some very cryptic images that I remember were conjured during the jam>>
first the "space code!" creatures try out the OHP
then the "three" family are exclaiming
(for what reason we are not exactly sure)
the mangy dog fades into the distance
the tree falls
the devil sings a song in his canoe
and the snow keeps falling
the bird shaman with the purple aura interprets the Coyote's dream
(with assistance from a translator)
the coyote was in actuality being dreamed by the red crystal
then becoming the pelvis of Mr. Awesome!
birthing a bottle
racy bottle scene:
the amber bottle and the wire are lovers
purple tears enters (as jealous plastic)
snowflakes is jealous too
red bottle lover crushes them all
05 PP!
the wire visits grandpa rocking on his chair
we discover that the house is haunted
the scared wire's urine fills the house and grandpa is 50 years younger by this elixir!
"my special place"
