“…1 Protein sequences were obtained from NCBI, converted to musical notes using the Gene2Music algorithm, and visualized using Finale Music Notation Software (MakeMusic Inc., Eden Prairie). The framework and order of proteins was drafted by Daniel J. Klionsky and the musical composition was created by Rie Takahashi.…”

“…Such an approach could create an additional layer of information for and interpretation of pre-existing data such as protein sequences. 1 The main challenge of combining music and science is to balance the two components so that neither the musicality nor the scientific data are compromised in translation. Here, we describe the process of creating SNARE Dance, an orchestration depicting autophagosome biogenesis, using the Gene2Music program.…”

Showing doing. The art–science debate in a performative perspective

The relationship between art and science plays an important role in the evolution of Interpretive Consumer Research (ICR). The discussion is currently stuck between a conception of art as mimesis (imitating reality), and as poiesis (imaginative creation of reality). The consequence is an inability to move beyond the frame of art or science and release the potentials of both sides. This paper introduces a performative perspective on art in a research context. Instead of separating art and science, a performative perspective tends to integrate both aspects in a processual and behavioural way. A central aspect is the concept of performance as restored behaviour that is characterized by a tension between the mimetic and the 'real'. Hereby, the act of 'doing something' transforms into 'showing doing'. Social and aesthetic behaviour becomes intertwined and advances a traditional, object-oriented concept of art. In a performativity context, doing research also becomes another form of 'showing doing' with an enactement impact. Such a perspective goes beyond a view which sees art only as a data source or an additional element of presenting research results. Art as a performance disrupts the linear notion of the research process, so that artistic modes and performances are at the intersection of method, research, object of research and representation of research.

“…First, researchers of molecular genetics have successfully converted genome-encoded proteins, coming from the information already encoded in the DNA sequences, into musical notes revealing auditory patterns while still remaining faithful to the protein sequence (Takahashi and Miller 2007). In the project called Gene2Music, Takahashi takes each amino acid and then encodes them by one to six codons (each codon is composed of three nucleotides).…”

extraterrestrial contact: Creating xenolinguistic sonic messages for extraterrestrial communication -ether ship electronic music orchestrations in the anza-Borrego desert aBstraCt Communication with other life forms in our universe has been an ongoing effort most notably conducted by the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Project (SETI). Whereas SETI uses a network of radio telescopes to search for frequencies that may indicate intelligent design, there are also attempts to communicate with extraterrestrials by using different ways to listen for messages as well as send messages. This article outlines a phenomenological approach that includes changes in cognition due to the creation of electronic sounds mixed with stellar acoustics, radio frequencies, and natural and manmade sounds as a way of experiencing changes in cognitive Willard Van De Bogart 48states. These cognitive states may be related to a conscious contact with other life forms not from our world. In this sense it is a galactic approach to interspecies communication.
