Making of Ishi's Brain Puppet Show

After returning from my summer with Bread and Puppet, Eamon and I began working on a performance of his comic Ishi's Brain for the November 2012 release of his new book Songs Of The Abyss.  We started working in August and enlisted the help of many friends throughout  the process.  Many long days, nights, and lists later- we performed for over 100 people at Windup Space for Eamon's art opening/book release party in Baltimore.
