ELEMENTS OF THE GAME:
1. your own voice
2. an incomplete zoetrope strip
3. an incomplete "unfinished drawings" strip (see figure 1)
4. a strip for the metamorphose game

INSTRUCTIONS:

PLAY:
On the 26th May, come to Koko in Camden for our gig. Present your strip at the door along with the code you will receive by e-mail. There will be a way of recording the images of each person in order to show them to the live audience.

BACKSTAGE:
Each strip is put together to complete each game. Three different kind of animations will appear on screen.
The voice samples will be mixed live by Matthew Herbert. Some more voices would be captured and sampled during the event.
