Description

We’ve all heard sounds in nature that capture our ears, whether it’s a bird call, a gentle stream or a thunderstorm. But what about other sounds? What noise does a glacier make? Or the tundra? And are they musical like those bird calls, chaotic, or just plain strange? Matthew Burtner is a composer, sound artist and eco-acoustician. He discusses his work, a recent Canadian exhibition and his newest album "Profiled from Atmospheres."HOST: Dave WaldronGUEST: Matthew Burtner, musician, composer, eco-acousticianLINKS: Matthew Burtner websiteInstagramFacebookMusic
