My wife,
Ursula Stuby and I collaborated on the design/build of what I call "The Cabinet of Professor von Awesome," the central set-piece for the show which contained...
1) a ghost X-ray machine (Spiritus X-Machina Illuminas)
2) a Ouija board
3) a "Real Death Simulator"
4) a scrolling background for a shadow puppet show
The cabinet also had folding legs and could be closed up like a trunk to carry most of the props for the show on the NYC subway.
It might start to make sense in the photos that follow...
