SNPs/slips
| Within genetics, just as with words, a slip and the meaning turns. SNPs / slips is a series of 21 pieces in total. These are found, altered works in every aspect. The dictionary pages have been sliced like tissue revealing a pattern. The covers have been flattened, stitched and altered through the addition of my text composed from collected lists of written slips of speech. |
These slips are paired with genetic sequences called SNPs (single nucleic polymorphisms) places within the genome that vary from the standard such as a mutation, a mistake, a slip of order compared to the norm.
