Miscommunication: transmission of information through The Letters of Shadow Puppets
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the failure of communication and how information gets filtered through my video work The Letters of Shadow Puppets. It is a video capturing a site-specific installation of twisting Venetian blinds, with a text of conversation stuck on each side. The conversation belongs to the traditional shadow puppets Karagöz and Hacivat who are known for their misunderstandings due to their divergent cultural backgrounds. Karagöz theater, serves as a vehicle to discuss miscommunication and the transmission of information. Both the work and the paper investigate what happens during a misunderstanding, how two parties communicate and how we receive information.
