Abstract

The sound-design is both a self-contained electroacoustic piece and, in part, the accompanying fixed-media segment of Ombra (for voice and solo viola) composed by Emily Howard. It – and the installation as a whole – responds to the medical condition of Debbie Boss (the wife of ANU’s co-artistic director and visual artist Owen Boss), drawing on a series of diaries of Debbie’s where she charts personal stories of living with epileptic seizures – following surgery to remove a previously undiagnosed meningioma brain tumour in 2014.
