Additional Information
Ludwig Berger is a soundscape artist and composer from Switzerland. He has lived and worked in Zurich and Milan, and is now based in Montreal. As part of the Akousma festival, on October 18 at Usine C, he presents an enchanting work entitled Garden of Ediacara, in reference to the geological period of the same name, 600 million years ago. At that time, there was a peaceful underwater ecosystem inhabited by soft-bodied, eyeless and boneless creatures. I caught up with the artist to talk about his music, but also about a whole host of other things, including his interest in what he calls “musical eco-fiction”.
