The normality can't obtain its rational meaning without aberrations, so that it creates consequently their own demons, nightmares, monsters, abnormalities and deviant figures in order to be able to determine "oneself" in accordance with something. When separation occures, the normality encounter with its aberrations and is forming a judgement: it is no more my task. I don't take responsibility for it. It's out of my competence and my scale of values! In your life you just rarely meet these monsters, criminals, cripples and deviants because the separation happenes on social and individual level. The "persona non grata"-s are kept closed in institutions, in the deepest subconscious of the individuals by the society. The main point of the Frankenstein-project is such a revolt (the monster is rioting with its one existence), which opens the carefully closed locks and confronts us with the fact, that our normality is very incidental and it is standing on unstable bases, as a matter of fact on the principles of the majority. The confrontation, the appearance of the "monster" itself is real and human and tips out everything from its own system, as it draws attention with on how we make our judgements. We always have to confront the fact, that we are not similar to the "monster" but to everybody else. "The monster, the deviant, the someone"is invidious free, because he is not paying attention to the world and doesn't care about our limits. We are jealous of his freedom, because we can not and don't want to integrate him - our fear is much bigger and our cowardice is much deeper -that's why we simply eliminate him.

"I think the essence of becoming imbued with fascism in a philosophical aspect is the mixture of envy and fear. My intention is for the audience to experience this process in a very realistic way. The purpose would be for the question to arise not on an intellectual level, since there we have all the correct answers ready. Instead, out of curiosity filled with surprise and through the denial of the monster, we should be able to confront the fact, that we are much rather the barmaids or containerdealers than the different, special individuals, the other people."
