Installations
The Boneshaker Trilogy was created for the El Tour De Tucson International Bicycle Race in Tucson AZ. Each of the 3 stories was a segment of Papa’s life and times as the ring master of his mutinous circus. Each installation was an evening length performance with multitudes of guest artists and groups and a plethora of dazzling effects.

KABOOM is a live multimedia pyrotechnic theatrical performance created by Flam Chen and Adam Cooper-Terán, in collaboration with Bark Bark Bark, and Greathouse Labs. Three couch potatoes play KABOOM, a video game where players choose from sixteen warriors to battle one another across time and space. In the eighth fight one of the Couch Potatoes enters a secret code to unlock the game’s ultimate weapon, the Kali-Bomb. Unbeknownst to the players, the Kali-Bomb literally invokes the goddess Kali, who emerges from the television and brings about the end of the world.
