| Title | Synopsis about a story on the process of bassoon making |
| Description | One-page typed story synopsis by Lindsay Cooper, featuring a short-handwritten note at the bottom referring to additional material (including photographs not suitable for fax transmission). The page is visually framed with repeated stamped images of red bassoons around the border. The synopsis outlines a narrative tracing the transformation of a tree into a bassoon, following each stage of the instrument’s production. A central female protagonist accompanies this process, undertaking a series of quests linked to the instrument’s development. The synopsis emphasises that the main theme is that of “transformation” and mentions the use of archive animation (including the use of computers) and bassoon music to tell this story. |
