Clearly the inspiration for Lucas’ lightsaber fights…I love the mystery of the caged mask and full body cloaking- could be a woman, could be a man under there. Hollow split bamboo swords make the best crashing noises. Go Richard!

ROFLOL! If I see some member of the museum with a crazed look in their eye, I now know to run, run, run away!

Namastenancy, sometimes we give a quiz to visitors to see if they have fully absorbed the information on our object labels. If they don’t perform well we may choose to apply a little discipline. That is probably what you heard.

I thought I heard muffled screams the last time I was in the museum! I thought you were torturing some miscreant but now that you mention it, it was probably the staff. But what good is art if you don’t suffer at little?

Cool video, Michele. If Patrick wants to hear loud screaming in the museum he can always come up here to our side of the fourth floor at deadline time.
