by: Julie Lapalme Embedded in the Bed Box Theatre are inter-linked tales. The Story of the Bed Box Theatre tells of the emergence of a young girl´s voice as she finds a theatre nestled in the spiral skeleton under her bed.
The animation, The Cuckoo in the Staircase: Gabriel Said, is a tale of Maria´s creativity when faced with a difficult choice, in a parallel scenario of a saintly happening. An alternate conception tale, this story ties into the mythology around the Cuckoo Bird and views on Adoption. An excerpt from Virginia Woolf´s essay, “Professions for Women” is re-told, as a Winding Staircase, Cuckoo Birds, Books, Bingo, and Polka Shoes surface through the dreams in the Bed Box Theatre.
The computer becomes a tool for navigating through a miniaturized architecture in a landscape of memory and the imaginary.
As part of the Centre For Art Tapes‘ Computer Scholarship Program (Halifax, Nova Scotia), I produced Embedded in 1997. It was re-edited with a new soundtrack and an animated segment in 1999.
