Projecting spliced images of digitally enhanced footage from Griffith’s film with new clips onto three big screens and mixing it live with blues and hip-hop music, Miller remixes, revisits, and condenses the silent three-hour epic into a 75-minute multimedia experience, in a process that subverts traditional musical accompaniment to silent films...

...must recognize this success as the initiation of a more critical conversation between the Undergraduate Council and the University. It is a conversation about the realities of undergraduate life at the College. The establishment of a 24-hour library constitutes an important first step in University Hall’s commitment to recognizing the dramatically skewed and extended schedules of students on campus.
