On April 4th, 2019, in celebration of the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley’s immortal gothic horror novel and feminist text, USC came alive with a multimedia, interactive and live performance extravaganza.

Under a dark and drizzling sky, spectators watched as animated digital projections transformed Doheny Library’s exterior into a vibrant, electronic canvas for re-telling the original story of Frankenstein. Under the direction of digital artists Akiko Yamashita, Yo-Yo Lin, and numerous USC faculty, more than a hundred USC students working in different disciplines –animation, interactive media, music, theatre, dance, art and design, and architecture– collaborated to re-animate Mary Shelley’s enduring classic in stunning fashion.

This documentation of the live event, includes performances by student dancers and actors against the backdrop of original animation and music by student animators and composers.

Also pictured is an interactive Frankenstein „Faces“ snapchat station, „Frankenflatables“ inflated sculptures, and „Dr. Frankenhead“ the interactive game.

This event was sponsored by USC Visions & Voices Arts and Humanities Collective and organized by USC Libraries, the School of Cinematic Arts, and the School of Architecture.
