Mark ‘Spoonman’ Petrakis and I are developing a shadow puppet show we call ‘Ubu’s Dreams’.
This short series of sketches 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.
For this project, we are creating a variety of wooden figures with a laser cutter: big faces, music notes, dancers, trees and graveyards, to name but a few. We then tape our puppets on wooden sticks, and wave them across the stage to bring them to life, with a projector over our heads.
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.

This was a flexidisc record that came with the 1960s Dick Tracy puppet. I used masking tape to adhere the wobbly disc to a Little Golden Record and its still tightly stuck after all these years. Still plays, too!

Imaginext figure from the Series 8 blind bags. His accessory is a puppet control bar. I found him at a local grocery store in the Seasonal aisle. They were selling them as gifts to go in Easter Baskets.
That’s how I got my first Imaginext figure in 2014.
Tara trying to play with all the puppets together: FatExSailor, TheMatrone, DevilHimself, DementedAngel and the CatHeadedBuisinessman.
At the County Museum (Shugborough) there is a huge display of puppets that came from a collector in Abbots Bromley.
Strictly speaking they should be called marionettes because they are on strings, puppets fit on the hand.
A person's maturity consists in having found again the seriousness one had as a child, at play.

A lone picture of the puppet mistress and her puppet-making materiels.
I wanted to make something but didn't have time to take any new pictures so I just 'recycled' the puppet mistress ones.
