Christian Bok's DNA Theory: Xenotext

Today, technology has evolved and spread it's root in all fields, and poetry is no exception to it. While, researching for my blog task I came across a great technological advancement. This is a project called "Xenotext" by Christian Bok. 

Bok has manufactured a “Xenotext” by writing a poem and encoding it within a sequence of DNA.This is done by pairing off all the letters of the English alphabet, so that whenever a given letter (E, for example) appears in the first poem, its complement (Y) appears in the second poem. The poem that Bok enciphers in DNA and inserts into D. radiodurans begins “any style of life / is prim”. ("The Xenotext Experiment")

He has nicknamed this poem Orpheus. The poem that is generated by the bacterium in response to Bok's poem begins as “the faery is rosy / of glow” and is nicknamed Eurydice.

While reading about Bok's theory, I came across an interesting article where Bok answers some questions in an interview.
