Half dance, half juggling, half mime, half magic....I'm a contact juggler, not a mathematician

heyo!
I've been wondering for a while but getting no where satisfying: is there any way to make the ball + hands like an eye you can open and close, and look around at the public with etc? best thing of the sort I've found is this vid:



anyone explored the same region and found anything? :)

Play around with it. I would imagine it would be a vertical peekaboo with your hands flat, vertically. You might try it inside the forearms. I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Hi Joseph,

Yes there are many possibilities, I have researched this concept quite thoroughly over the last year or so and have developed a few ideas to present in my stage number, and found many others that are still quite raw. Unfortunately I'm not ready to publish a video of this show yet - and text is too much like hard work - so I suggest we wait til Berlin convention (I trust you are going to show up) and I will gladly share these then. If you are really impatient you can come to the Katakomben in Berlin and jam with me anytime (I'm always happy to host jugglers)!

In the meantime I'm sure you can play with it and find some fresh stuff, I have to say it always gets a good reaction from audiences so you are going to be rewarded well for your efforts.

I'll be in berlin and at katakomben in June! really good to know there's some sturdy contact juggling happening there, part of me was wondering if it'd be like the small conventions I went to where I'm the only contact juggler ^^ thank you for existing!
