Spill Your Guts

I want to explore a posited multigenomic Homo sapiens--‐microbes symbiotic individual through cultivation, isolation, electrophoresis and sequencing of its gut microbiota and

Homo sapiens parts, to research the emerging "human" entity and its core unity. Since it is easier to perceive correlations between samples through audition rather than sight, the results would be presented as unique "songs", using the electrophoresis gel slabs as punched cards for a child's music box.
