Project Feature: Magic Lantern, Live

#DLECTRICITY presents “Magic Lantern, Live” by Won Ju Lim, a live shadow play installation and performance that creates a cultural impact for audience members by pointing to a time when we, as visual beings, experienced the magic of moving image for the first time.

Unlike a traditional shadow play in which the moving components are props and puppets, the moving components in “Magic Lantern, Live” will be the lights. The audience will be able to freely navigate between behind the screen, where the performance will take place and in front of the screen, where the effects of the actions (the shadows, reflections, refractions) will create a magical world. Performances will be happening both September 24th and 25th at DLECTRICITY!
