Hèlix. Variacions genòmiques – Sónar 2026

Hèlix was born from the conversation between Miquel Àngel Pujana, researcher at the Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute – Catalan Institute of Oncology, and Magda Polo Pujadas, from the  research group Ekho, at the University of Barcelona, about  the idea of turning genetic information into music.
The work develops a system of sonic transcoding that interprets the molecular foundation defining what makes us human, along with the individual and functional specificities found across ethnicities. To make this possible, artificial intelligence models are applied, with the aim of generating musical structures that are both formally coherent and epistemologically meaningful.
