"After fertilization, cells are multiplying, and rapidly replicate their DNA. I used the timbre of tutti strings as if they were a growing zygote, rapidly changing in shape whilst creating more packets of the same information. The result is that a body of sound grows out of these small packets of musical information." © Dai Fujikura
