2. Fingerprint Skin Graft
Program Note:
A skin graft is a type of surgery where skin is transplanted from one section of a patient to
another section of the same patient (autologous), from a genetically identical individual to
another (isogeneic), from the same species to the same species (allogeneic), from two different
species (xenogeneic), or from replacing with synthetic material (prosthetic).
The same procedure occurs with the pitch material of Fingerprint Skin Graft, shifting from a
diatonic set [024579E], to an increasingly more chromatic aggregate by means of the a slow
introduction of the complement [1368T] until the completion of the aggregate. The visceral
melody that sits on top is unique every time that it appears, but similar enough to appear
analogous, like a fingerprint.
Performance Notes:
Indicates a smooth glissando between the given pitches that occurs evenly
over course of the given duration.
