Abstract:
Inspired by various scientific experiments with plants, bacteria and genetic research, Silver's last work rather raises astounding questions then to give answers: Do lower life forms have perception and even memory? Is an experience heritable? How a food DNA affects the one who eats it? There was specially prepared food with encoded information served in ONO gallery on Monday 10th September at 20:00. Audience could taste it and experience how it feels to be influenced by it.
