Description

A century after the ill-fated polar expedition led by Robert Falcon Scott, These Rough Notes evokes the dangerous fascination Antarctica elicits in a cross-media collaboration between writer Bill Manhire, photographer Anne Noble, composer Norman Meehan, and singer Hannah Griffin. Drawing its title from one of the last pages of Scott's journal, the book captures the harsh reality of an unforgiving environment as experienced firsthand by Manhire and Noble and dwells on the human spirit and its will to explore, to endure, and ultimately to accept. The poems and photographs that the pair presents are complemented by the music and vocals of Meehan and Griffin on the accompanying audio CD.
