The Talking Tea-Kettle

The Talking Tea-Kettle, inserted into your ear, speaks with the voice of the dead. Why would we want to listen? Svoboda considers this question while relating how Houdini and Nebraska magician David P. Abbott stamped out the practice of mediums in the early years of the twentieth century, with the videographer's shout-out to her own mother. Premiered at the American Museum of the Moving Image.
