By means of a magnificent Victorian biunial magic lantern that once belonged to his great-grandfather, Professor Erkki Huhtamo tells the story of his forefather's adventurous life. An optical scientist and amateur astronomer, the elder Professor Huhtamo had his share of rare experiences: he climbed Mont Blanc, observed the transit of Venus, and got stuck in ice for an entire winter as a member of a polar expedition.
Professor Huhtamo will be assisted by his daughter Margareta, an aspiring magic lantern showwoman and talented lantern slide painter, and her husband Olof, an accomplished musician and distinguished sound effects artist.This presentation will occur in the theatre of the Velaslavasay Panorama
