Harmony of Genes


Objective:
To construct and demonstrate an aesthetically pleasing tool for the eyes as well as an exploratory tool for the ears that integrates the massive database from NIH BLAST with an interactive model of the taxonomic “tree” of life. Since the genome of any organism is far too long to fully appreciate in a sequential approach and that DNA is a new source of meta data, this project is seeking to begin the process of unifying this data into an experience of genetics that is non-linear and educational. Does life echo
throughout the Earth? Can students learn to hear it?

“Man is always marveling at what he has blown apart, never at
what the universe has put together, and this is his limitation.”
