I have no mouth and I must scream

[hazelk]

I have no time and I want to post, vid, anything that isn’t writing this damn lecture. Teaching is like something like vidding, mashing up other people’s results and images, re-telling the old stories. Yanni Nusslein-Volhard and the Mutants of Doom my female hero, the Buffy of developmental genetics. There’s a mutant called Buffy (or rather buffy – Buffy is the protein), it slays cells not vampires...

Don't be too impressed. I didn't actually write the opera. All we had to do for the class was to kind of write out a treatment, act by act, but I really got into it and included a sketch of the set and made a tape of some different composers (I wanted kind of a mixture of sounds). It was a lot of fun, but I can't imagine actually writing a libretto, and the music, oy!
