Biographia (Electronic book text)

Brackett raises questions concerning the manipulations of science and mass media as they define human epistemology on both an individual and collective scale, and her work explores the blurry ethics of a frenetic acceleration in acquisition of scientific knowledge. Brackett's recent work uses scientific data, such as the Map of the Human Genome, brainwave biofeedback, and biological frequencies, as elements in her musical compositions and surround-sound installations. By using her own voice to generate the frequencies of DNA, she combines the individual human with its collective representation.
