    The Exquisite Corpse (feat. Chris Filipowicz)

    Dr. Victor Frank was an expert in biological 3D printing and organ transplants. A burst of arrogance and inspiration lead him to manufacture an entire human body, complete with a nanorobotic immune system. But when his creation unexpectedly comes to life, he’s forced to grapple with the weight of his crime against nature- and if he cannot come to terms with having created new life, the exquisite corpse may bring about his death… In our first-ever guest episode, Chris Filipowicz shares a pitch for a contemporary version of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, reimagining it through the lens of bodily autonomy and disability rights.

Will he succeed in his preposterous quest? Or will he have to face reality? Find out in El Don: Origins, a contemporary reimagining of Don Quixote.
