The flu's -greatest hits-

Zielinski took the genetic sequence of a variant of hemagglutinin and created a computer algorithm to turn it into music. -CNN

You heard it from CNN! this link is a link to Stephan Zielinski's song. Which was taken from the genetic sequence of swine flu and made into music.

have a listen: http://www.stephan-zielinski.com/static/Swine%20Flu%20Hemagglutinin.mp3

It seems Swine flu kills people by producing a very lengthy, repetitive, midi quality sound track in the bloodstream. I cant help but wonder what part of the strand causes the snare and tambourine to come in. I'll admit thats a nice touch and choice in instrumentation on swine flu's behalf, i mean, though the tambourine was overused in contrast to the melody, i will give it credit for being an acellular organism.


"[the song]... is a curiously melodic, innovative, somewhat soothing work." -Zielinski CNN

Woah woah, Stephen, I said it had a nice touch with the tambourine, thats it..don't give it false hopes.

Stephen you keep tinkering with music and viruses, because meanwhile, I have made my own computer algorithm to represent Swine flu...lets take a look at the output

Here is swine flu had it been Andy Warhall inspired Pop art:

Who says swine flu is a strand who randomly hits a tambourine in cheesy synth lead in Quicktime 7? No, this work shows another side to the virus, one of refined taste and post-modernism. Truely avant-garde...


This program setting shows the famous H1N1 represented as a body art piece:

(this is one of my favorites)

This program setting has virus being represented as an abstract painting:






In a world full of color, who made the assumption we are always full of color? Swine flu didnt. Some roam the earth color blind by inner turmoil and lack of satisfaction, just to strive for a higher meaning and self actualization. This representation shows us just that.




Hopefully these works can show us what this strand truley is all about, and not limiting it to a simple music composer...Zielinski!
