Hi Helen,

Thank you,

When I was in hospital for over two weeks, depressed because bogged 
down with what was yet another symptom caused by the cancer treatment, 
getting an early copy of the book pulled my through the bleakness of 
it all and cheered me up. In fact, I read it twice. Please get 
yourself a copy if you can, because you'll enjoy it's dedication to 
art and life and attention to critical contexts.


Wishing you well

It has been a long time since I've been on this list and it's with a

Please support it and buy it, it includes some brilliant contributions.

Frankenstein Reanimated: Creation & Technology in the 21st Century.

Marc Garrett, Yiannis Colakides (Eds.)
Publisher: Torque Editions

Contributors: Alexia Achilleos, Zach Blas, Frances A. Chiu, Ami 
Clarke, Régine Debatty, Mary Flanagan, Carla Gannis, Lynn Hershman 
Leeson, Srecko Horvat, Salvatore Iaconesi, Olga Kopenkina, Marinos 
Koutsomichalis, Shu Lea Cheang, Gretta Louw, Joana Moll, Laura Netz, 
Eryk Salvaggio, Devon Schiller, Guido Segni, Gregory Sholette, 
Karolina Sobecka, Alan Sondheim, Michael Szpakowski, Eugenio 
Tisselli, Ruben Verwaal, Paul Vanouse.


Frankenstein Reanimated is a book for our strange times. Bang-up to 
date it includes essays and artworks that engage with the Covid-19 
pandemic, through to weird new imaginings of human-machine hybrids. 
A striking cover with flaps displays a triptych by artist Carla 
Gannis, a bespoke narrow format, and over 100 illustrations inside 
make this an attractive book for a wide range of audiences. The book 
includes full-colour illustrations and is designed by Mark Simmonds, 
who has designed previous Torque Editions publications and books for 
Tate Liverpool and the Baltimore Museum of Art.


Mary Shelley’s classic gothic horror and science fiction novel 
Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus has inspired millions since 
it was published in 1818. Today, we are witness to many different 
horrors and phantoms of our own creation. Chronic wealth and health 
inequalities, climate change, democratic collapse, and the spectre 
of the nuclear apocalypse are among the diffuse, monstrous products 
of our “advanced” technological moment. Frankenstein Reanimated 
presents a dynamic collection of artworks, essays, and 
conversations, addressing surveillance, biohacking, viruses, 
colonialism, digital culture, and more. It retraces and 
contextualises three international art exhibitions exploring themes 
within Frankenstein, and speculates on what Mary Shelley would think 
about the world today. Collectively, the book offers a lens through 
which to look at our current situation, and how art practices shape, 
and are shaped by, contemporary society.


Endorsements:

“This collection shines a light on artists as critically engaged 
citizens providing a kaleidoscopic view of our unevenly distributed 
future. These are the Frankensteins we need!” — Felix Stalder, 
Zurich, University of the Arts.


“Frankenstein Reanimated is an important record of some incredible 
artists working today, who both dismantle and rebuild our 
contemporary technological systems, profoundly reimagining 
everything from facial recognition to AI, 3D printing to virtual 
gaming environments.” — Sarah Cook, University of Glasgow.


The book will be launched at events, book outlets, art spaces and 
galleries in Germany, Spain, Cyprus, Switzerland and the UK, and 
other places still are to be confirmed.
