Moskitoo - Mitosis Photo: album cover art
Japanese electronic musician and singer, Sanae Yamasaki A.K.A. Moskitoo was thinking of journeys, even ones on the cellular level when she created her album Mitosis. Mitosis, the division of a cell into two identical sets of chromosomes, was a point of departure for Moskitoo as she explored the ideas of division, expansion, the human body, and small particles of matter.
