In August of 2013 the city of Yilan (Taiwan) will host a Celebration of the Tyrant’s Giant Creatures!

For this special occasion, the Tyrant of Cardboardia has tasked his citizens to bring about a complete and radical change in the events, conditions and emotions of daily life.  To achieve this goal, the Cardboard Technological Research Laboratory has been established on the Island of Taiwan to investigate the transformation of ideas into objects, the transition between flat and multi-dimensional actions, and the movement between unconscious and conscious states.

The laboratory staff will be engaged in the preparation of the Grand Metamorphosis Procession, which will take place under the influence of the moon and several Dream Machines.  For this project, the Cardboardia Technological Research Laboratory will consist of the “Department of Natural Laws”, responsible for the creation of the Cardboard Moon, which will guide the procession, and the “Department of Irrationality” responsible for catalyzing movements of the unconsciousness.
