Session 1: show & tell with talk back. Session 2: presentation of projects. Some shadow puppetry involved. Live participants get additional exploration time in studio.
Tim Gosley has experimented with live video projection since the late 1980s. In 2024, two projects, Letters to Rumi by Meharoona Ghani, and poems from Platero and I by Juan Ramón Jiménez with classical guitarist Jacob Cordover, pushed his parameters for new discoveries. He puppeteered for Jim Henson on the original Fraggle Rock; was Basil Bear on Canadian Sesame Street; and won a Gemini award for Wumpa’s World.
Materials required: cell phone (both the light & video camera), props, puppets & basic craft supplies from around your house. Document projector if you have one.
