Separated in infancy, linked together through kinship. The Twinning Reaction examines the human costs of an infamous research project: the 1960s Neubauer-Bernard study of separated twins. In the nature v. nurture study, twins were separated in infancy by an adoption agency, then tested for multiple years by psychiatrists from a New York research facility. Shockingly, the adoptive parents of these twins were never told their baby had an “other” living in the same metropolitan area -- some just a few miles away.

To answer that question, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and composer Tod Machover from the MIT Media Lab asked for sound recording submissions from ordinary Detroiters, listened to street noises, and delved deeper into the city's history.
