DNA of Darkness

Dive deep into the Finnish winter with Johanna Nordblad. The Finnish people’s DNA is the most diverse in all of Europe. Extremes are literally in our blood. In honour of Finland’s centenary celebration, we’ll extract Finnish people’s DNA from the extreme points of the country. The cello metal band Apocalyptica will then turn the genetic data into an original piece of music. The Symphony of Extremes premieres in late 2017. What makes Finnish DNA so special and how the DNA is extracted into the music?
