about

"Red Blood Cells" (1995) belongs to a handful of Gena’s very first forays into DNA sonification. It is based on a mix of five genes that are present in human blood: alpha and beta globin, heme synthetase, transaldolase, and glucose 6 phosphate. These are run into a DNA mixer that realizes them simultaneously, just as they are produced in the body. Like "Dihydrotestosterone", "Red Blood Cells" was fed directly into an FM
synthesizer.
