Listening To The Marionette | Bruno Descaves | TEDxPSU

Have you stopped to think what kind of relation we have with objects? We deal with them all the time. The job of a puppeteer is to animate objects, which means to impart anima or life into them. In this TEDx talk, performing arts master and puppeteer Bruno Descaves shows that a change in our behavior with objects can bring a transformation where life and machines interact to create a more joyful and playful relationship with the material world.
With his innate talent and invention, Bruno Descaves’ marionettes, violin renderings and contraptions have fascinated audiences around the world, filling the environments with strong vibrations of contentment, wonder and great joy, which remain precious moments in people’s lives. His unusual trajectory led him, after graduating with a degree in Physics, to work his way around the earth in 7 years, going clockwise essentially by land and sea. In 2016 he obtained his Masters in Performing Arts at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro researching and building the Intercessor Objects, devices based on the qualities of marionettes, that are manipulated and worn by persons during performances allowing for an expansion in our awareness as collective human beings.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
