Took this photo just before NYE while setting up for a party (Indo/Bali Party). These Puppets are from Indonesia, there name is Wayang golek (rod puppets). Not to sure what this character is. They looked very good lined up on the Banana Tree that we cut down just for them. I think there was about 20 of them all up.
Anyway Happy New Year to all my Flickr Friends.
Enjoy

Puppets not profits! Although I bet this lady wishes she had both. Her handmade puppets are awesome!
My seven, almost eight year old daughter, Finn and I made this little puppet theatre for a birthday present for her friend.
It has a little battery operated light in the roof and a wind up music maker from a toy jewellry box screwed onto the side.
We had lots of fun making this for her, and we also made a mix tape for her with all Finn's favourite music on it.

You can't really tell from the looks of it, but when you press on the keys it makes the little puppet in the antique suitcase dance. Don't artists say the darndest things?

Master of Puppets is a 1980s album by heavy metal band Mettalica. I'm not sure why it is being featured on this Shoreditch wall, which is known for advertising, unless perhaps the album has been remastered and reissued...? Dunno, but it still makes a good piece of artwork.
Called "marionette show" in ancient China, a puppet show is a theatre performance in which puppet figures are made to move by puppeteers pulling strings or by putting their hands inside them.
In China, the origin of puppets dates back to the Shang Dynasty, when the custom of burying slaves alive with their deceased masters was practiced. Of the 3,000 funeral objects excavated from the Yin Ruins in Anyang City, there are pottery figurines of slaves with cangues. In the Warring States Period, there appeared entertaining figurines used in story-telling and singing performances as props. And such art forms became popular. After the Han Dynasty, a puppet show gradually developed into a folk art combining opera, literature, sculpture and painting that appealed to both humans and divinities.
During the Three Kingdoms Period, there were "water-driven one hundred play" featuring exquisitely-made puppets performing humanlike singing, dancing and acrobatics. In the Song Dynasty, puppet shows enjoyed an unprecedented boom, with a wide variety of puppet types used in the plays, including string puppets, rod puppets, water puppets, pyrotechnic puppets, iron stick puppets, glove puppets and flesh puppets etc.
During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, puppet plays caught on in all areas. By integrating with local operas, various kinds of regional puppet plays came into being, such as Heyang string puppet play of Shaanxi and Zhangzhou glove puppet play of Fujian. Puppet shows also advanced with the times. After the movie came into being, they found their way into the movie field, creating increasing impact of puppet shows.
In former times, a puppet show was one of the most popular entertaining art forms among ordinary people. Such shows were usually staged on occasions like sacrificial rituals and festive banquets, adding color to people's life. In modern times, however, puppet shows suffered decline due to war chaos. But they caught on again shortly after the war.
After 1949, except for a handful of private puppet troupes, most others were restructured as government-funded troupes. While retaining traditional plays, these puppet troupes created a large number of modern plays, also known as "civilized new plays".

My buddy Spike in New York City mailed me these finger puppets made in South America and bought from a street vendor in NY. He lovingly made a custom finger puppet home out of a MacBook rechargeable battery box to ship them in.
