Nataraja
The user cranks the handle of a hybrid Cinematographe-cum-Mutoscope, generating a divine, whirling jig of creation and destruction. Named after Shiva's posture as Lord of the Dance, Nataraja combines cue-dot fragments and swaying heroes in a clattering, miniature animated parade. Made from a 1950s cast-iron British toy, and loaded with a hand-sprocketed loop that was custom-designed and cut from transparency plates.
