| Hi, Nancy,
Indeed, the inhuman-ness of Frankenstein is a bit similar to that of the murderers and criminals in our social news. But, remember that Frankenstein does his creation out of all the good intention--extension of life, and ambition to know heaven and earth. As for the web project, for me, it's not really to point at our dark nature, but to point out the composite nature of all of us. That we are never a coherent and consistent identity, but a combination of bits and pieces--or conflicting forms of ideologies. As Kevin points out, however, what the web project "might" lead to--against the teachers' wish--is another dark side of us that like to steal or plagiarize. (Please read his short message on this page.) Kate |
