Well, yes, and I've got an instrument that sings in reponse to a complex series of electrical impulses, carefully fashioned by various people over a period of years. I call it "my stereo".
When you can get your belly (or your heat pipes) to sing, say, "Mary Had A Little Lamb", then we'll talk. ;)
DNA -> music: reminds me of arguments (and their quasi-futility) about "minimum description length" as a basis for distinguishing among models. Also of my own efforts to memorize pi based on associating a pitch with each digit.
But, well, none of this has anything to do with Audiopad, as far as I can tell. It's sort of like playing around with things like GarageBand, but with a different interface. Perhaps your comments were intended to apply to the "audiopad using a chessboard" concept--since one might argue that that's a form of "found art" rather than art created on its own terms, which sounds like what's bugging you--but if so, you could have made that more clear. :)
