When you start to question reality,

a lot of things can occur.

All right, I'll try to give you the 15 second history.

Projection design and projection as such has been around for a very long time.

And if you think about what it is, you go back to Seraglio in the 1600s, people running around with magnifying glasses and vials of colored light, pretty much the same realm.

So it is much older than you would think.

You know, electricity was the main mover of what you see as now projection design.

as they say, is history.

The playwrights at Yale inspire their own colleagues, like Wendell K. Harrington, the head of projection design at DGSD.

I think it's always the writers that give me optimism at Yale because, you know, that's where the rubber meets the road.

Ultimately, everything depends on the writing.

Sometimes it's easy to forget that because we're all busy with our varying tasks.

But without the writing, we got nothing.

You gotta keep remembering why we do this.

We do this so that somebody in the audience will cry.
