Virtual Puppetry
You can make a face smile, you can make it squint, you can make it sneer, you can make it wink, blink and nod. Animatedly. 3-Dishly. And you can even learn how it's all done: the history, the technology, the whole facial thing.
You can also make a entire skeleton wiggle and weave and bob and bounce. You can even throw stuff at it.
Maybe not the kind of control you'd really want, if virtual puppetry were what you were hoping to do. But the kind of control you can play with, and dream about the future of all of us puppets on the evermore interactive virtual stage with.
