Recent Productions

Leigh Spinners Mill

A new production in collaboration with the Manchester Royal Exchange's Leigh Ambassadors group at Spinners Mill for family audiences, inspired by real historical events.

In addition to support from King's College London and Sussex University, this production is made possible by a generous commission from the Manchester Royal Exchange, and will feature as part of their Den pop-up festival.

Listen to an episode of the Exchange's podcast Connecting Tales discussing the show, with Tom, Elliott, and Leigh Ambassador (and part time ghost) Mike Burwin.

Emma Bradburn, intern for the ‘Civic Theatres: A Place for Towns’ research project wrote an account of the show on her blog.

What is it?

A mixture of coding education, Augmented Reality and live performance in an immersive storytelling experience.
An ordinary Year 5 assembly is interrupted by the arrival of Undersecretary Quill, asking for their help. This begins a Ghost Hunter apprenticeship, a series of four coding challenges given to them by Professor Bray. They stress thinking like a programmer – learning to read and debug code, think about the steps of an algorithm, and basic logic structures – through coding their ghost detector in Make Code.
Two weeks later, they explore a haunted Battersea Arts Centre in an immersive live performance. The show is structured like an investigation: Students split into teams, studying artifacts for clues and going out into ‘the field,’ using their devices to find evidence of the spirit's activity.
With the evidence they uncover, students learned about the building's history, who the ghost is and why she is haunting it, unmask a villain, find a stolen a necklace, clear the ghost's name and set her free.
The Digital Ghost Hunt was featured in Immersive Arcade's Best of British since 2001.

The Story

The Digital Ghost begins when a normal school assembly was interrupted by Deputy Undersecretary Quill from the Ministry of Real Paranormal Hygiene, there to recruit the school’s Year 5 class into the Department’s Ghost Removal Section. She tells them it’s due to their unique ability to see and interact with ghostly spirits.

Under the tutelage of Deputy Undersecretary Quill and Professor Bray, the Ministry’s chief scientist, the young ghost hunters must track down the Battersea Arts Centre ghost by learning how to program their own paranormal detectors. Their devices – made from two microcomputers, a Raspberry Pi and a Micro:bit – allow the children to identify objects and locations touched by the ghost. Each has different capabilities, forcing the classmates to work together to discover ghostly traces, translate Morse code using flickering lights and find messages left in ectoplasm, or ultraviolet paint. Meanwhile, the ghost communicates through a mixture of traditional theatrical effects and the poltergeist potential of smart home technology. Together, the pupils unravel the mystery of the ghost's haunting and help to set it free.

Notable Hauntings

The Battersea Arts Centre

A scratch of The Digital Ghost Hunt was performed at the Battersea Arts Centre in November, 2018, funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council's Next Generation of Immersive Experiences program.

York Theatre Royal

The project was given further funding from the AHRC for impact & engagement in 2019 to adapt the show into a family experience, in collaboration with Pilot Theatre. A limited, sold-out run of the show premiered at the York Theatre Royal's 275th anniversary in August 2019.

The Garden Museum

On All Souls Day 2019 the project performed a museum-late experience in partnership with the Garden Museum in London. This new format sent young ghost hunters up a medieveal clocktower and digging for clues in the gardens of the 14th century St. Mary at Lambeth church.

The SEEK Ghost Detector

The SEEK Ghost Detector is a Micro:bit connected to a DecaWave DWM1001-DEV Ultra wideband radio, housed in a custom designed laser cut shell. The Micro:bit served as an accessible controller that students can program. By using Ultra-wideband Radio for indoor positioning, we leaving ghostly trails in Mixed Reality (MR) space for the students to find and interpret. There were four different detector types, all with different functions: detecting ghostly energy, translating Morse code when the ghost flashed the lights, and translating signs left by the ghost in Ultraviolet Ectoplasm.

The custom library that the students used to program their Micro:bits was written in MakeCode and C++ (available on Github.) An earlier mark 1 detector that used a Raspberry Pi was written in Python 3 (available in the Ghosthunter library on Github)

" traditions and participating in global events like cosplay. Universal Themes: Scholars argue that Japanese media often features an " odorless culture

Japanese entertainment is deeply tied to the country's cultural history. Modern media often draws directly from spiritual, artistic, and social traditions.

Modern Japanese entertainment is built on a foundation of historical performing arts that remain active today:

Japanese television is known for its diverse programming, which includes drama series, variety shows, and anime. The country's TV industry is dominated by five major networks: NHK, Fuji TV, TV Asahi, TBS, and Yomiuri TV. Japanese television has a strong focus on local content, with many shows and dramas produced specifically for domestic audiences. Caribbeancom 120214-749 Miku Ohashi JAV UNCENSORED

Her was actually released earlier in January 2014, titled LAF-41 "Laforet Girl Vol. 41" , confirming her transition to the uncensored market. However, the "Caribbeancom 120214-749" is arguably the most famous and celebrated of her uncensored titles, largely due to its thematic narrative and high production value.

Today, Japanese entertainment serves as a major driver for international tourism. Millions of travelers visit Tokyo annually specifically to experience the otaku culture of Akihabara, visit the Ghibli Museum, or shop at massive Pokémon Centers.

The Japanese entertainment industry is a global powerhouse. It blends centuries-old traditions with cutting-edge technology. This unique mix shapes global pop culture and drives massive international fandoms.

Japanese entertainment is a masterclass in world-building. It doesn’t just sell a song, a game, or a movie—it sells an aesthetic, a lifestyle, and a community. As global borders become increasingly digital, Japan’s unique ability to honor its past while obsessively inventing its future ensures that its cultural grip on the world will only tighten.

Concepts of animism and the spiritual world are central to stories like Spirited Away or Your Name . Gaming: Japan’s Digital Footprint

If you're interested in learning more about the film or video industry, particularly focusing on Japanese Adult Video (JAV) productions, I can discuss the industry's trends, the importance of censorship and regulations, and the careers of notable performers. However, I must ensure that any information provided adheres to platform guidelines and respects user sensitivities.
