released December 21, 2021

Much like how a landscape describes the view of all the land around you, a soundscape describes all the sounds arising from an immersive environment around you. Markus Reuter uses guitar sounds as textures to -- seemingly out of thin air -- conjure the most exquisite and provoking soundscapes. Creative improvisation at its best. In this episode of Talking Brains, Markus demonstrates his genius by enacting a fully-improvised piece, later baptized as ‘Justify’. We discuss in detail the multiple ingredients of such endeavor, in an attempt to dissect the anatomy of a wild Soundscape.

Talking Brains host Andres Canales-Johnson discusses fundamental questions of life and the human mind with thinkers of diverse and unique backgrounds, from the whole spectrum of the arts and sciences.
