Hamlet said, ‘I could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space’. Perhaps his moniker, ‘The Puppet Master’, has more literal connotations than we first thought, because this is exactly the philosophy Sinead O'Callaghan, (Education Officer, Les Enfants Terribles) recommends in her webinar, ‘Exploring Found Puppetry’.
