Meanwhile my job was to draw up a technically realistic plan for the Chicken combining elements of all the 5 designers, applied to my past giant puppet experience.
The Chicken was to be made with all free, rescued trash materials, starting with a refrigerator box body, recycle bin paper for feathers, used-up bedsheets for the neck, and scrap lumber for interior structure and rods. Only wood glue, staples, and a few bolts and tie lines were purchased.
It would also need to be operated by a team of at least 4 people in the style of bunraku puppetry, which would require great cooperation and communication between the campers, as well as physical strength and dexterity .
