Project Frankenstein is a client-based project at Carnegie Mellon University's Entertainment Technology Center that is working closely with the CMU Libraries. Our work will be a part of the university's exhibition commemorating the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley's classic horror novel 'Frankenstein.'
Our team is working to create an immersive, intuitive, and engaging single-player experience using Virtual Reality that will allow guests to become Frankenstein’s Monster as he transforms from a creature of innocence to a monster of wrath and vengeance. Combined with a supplemental mixed media Diary project, we hope to foster empathy in our audience and show how the original text continues to be relevant.
