Antibody explores a formal structure based on biological principles of mutation. Five musical cells, heard in their entirety at the beginning of the piece, are subjected to two layers of increasing “mutation” through the processes of deletion, duplication, inversion, insertion and translocation. In the first layer the score, read from laptop, is gradually reassembled, transforming the five cells into hybrid arrangements. The live performances of the five musicians are transformed electronically, employing analogous processes of mutation to create a second layer.
