Music by Gavin Lawson
This session was created for an event at the museum of consciousness in the UK. The audio uses actual DNA sequences converted into music. Using a variety of techniques including Ai, Gavin created a piece of music based on our genetic code.
DNA Double Helix and DNA Sonification both use mono nucleotide ACGT sequences converted into f# minor pentatonic scale for the compositions and sound design. This is called 'Hidden Music' by Dr Milton Mermikides. The sessions explore this sonified realm based on a performance at Oxford University Museum of Consciousness, exploring human input, neuroscience, biology and the creative process. F# and A# frequencies were recorded at the Great Pyramid in the Kings Chamber.
DNA - Double Helix
Master Tuning: 432Hz (Maria Renold II ) Open System - Twelve True Fifths. BPM: 60 (Rested heart rate) Scale: F# minor pentatonic scale Isochronic Tone: 7.97Hz Mereon Matrix The F# minor pentatonic scale consists of the following notes: F#, A, B, C#, E.
This scale, being a minor pentatonic scale, typically carries a set of emotional characteristics that are often associated with its tonality. The emotional quality of the F# minor pentatonic scale is often connected to feelings such as:
Melancholy: Minor scales, including the F# minor pentatonic, often evoke a sense of melancholy or introspection due to the intervallic relationships between the notes.
Mystery and Thoughtfulness: The scale?s tonality can create a sense of mystery and depth, prompting introspection and contemplation.
Sensitivity and Passion: The minor tonality of this scale can evoke emotions of sensitivity and depth, contributing to a passionate or heartfelt mood.
Seriousness and Depth: The emotional content of the F# minor pentatonic scale tends to have a serious and introspective quality, which can contribute to a sense of depth and contemplation in the music.
F# is located as the geometrical mean of C 256 Hz and its octave, C 512 HZ. In physical terms, the register shift constitutes a singularity, a nonlinear phase change comparable to our Solar Systems register shift.
Sonification: is a technique that uses sound to represent data or information. When applying it to DNA sequences, the goal is to translate genetic information, such as the sequence of nucleotides (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine - A, G, C, T), into sound patterns that could potentially reveal patterns, structures, or relationships within the genetic code.
