Zarbíá was born in the city of Flian; her father, Fálchíd Scúdhainn, was a mathematics professor in the University of Flian and her mother, Osraí Brinne, was a ''ŋamsaí'' player. A precocious tomboy, early on she was taught mathematics and ''ŋamsaí'' by her parents; however, she was by and large self-taught. She entered the University of Óc Eo at age 15 and specialized at age 19.

Scúdhainn’s compositions, many of them commissioned, number about 200 works in total. Many of them were described as “conceptual” or “constrained composition” by her contemporaries. Terse counterpoint is also common. However, she also liked exploring vocal music and folk-like themes. <!--

*Solo pieces (32)
*Vocal music

**Choral music (20)
*Orchestral music (20)
*One opera


Many of her “high-level” tempo markings and staff directions are in her native Tíogall – while “low-level” ones remain in Netagin (they’re basically symbols)
Þwhgad runs a blog on music and composition.
Her firsts as a composer:
• Used some rank-2 temperaments for the first time in Talmic music. (Is this realistic before precise pitch measurement/the invention of computers?)
As tuning theorist
• Wrote the treatise Linear Temperaments (Tíogall: [], literally “Vector temperaments”?), formalizing the concept of linear temperaments, as a generalization of JI and some particular examples of temperaments.-->

Scúdhainn contributed to algebra, number theory, and algebraic geometry.
