Curiosity Collective

Pupppet at Dorkfest

Posted by Craig on 24 March 2006 | 0 Comments

David Chatting and myself presented the Puppet at Dorkfest. It seemed to go down well with most of the people who attended although I had to climb on a table to get attention.  Having business cards for the collective would have been very useful as we met most people face to face (including artists, programmers, curators and a pupetteer from New York.)

Some interesting ideas that came out of talking to people included - putting the laptop in a box and connecting wirelessly to another (bigger) display, having more than puppet or more than one laptop with the puppets interacting or making the puppet into a Javanese shadow puppet. This last suggestion makes sense because she is currently 2d more like a shadow puppet than a marionette.
