D.R.

In concert

Max Bruckert is a self-taught guitarist who began his musical career in jazz and industrial rock. He has explored different methods of improvisation linked to his instrument, either amplified or related to electroacoustic means (eg, sound recording, editing). He studied composition at the Conservatory of Lyon. In 1999, he co-founded Kolektif Undata who play improvised electroacoustic music forms, often connected to visual improvisation. He has also participated

in Vibrations Composées, an association that supports acousmatic pieces and videos of composers linked to the association. Since 2004, he has been working at Grame, the National Centre for Musical Creativity in Lyon. Initially responsible for teaching and learning, he then took on the assistantship of composers in residence, creating mixed works, which entails the realisation of technological tools for real-time writing and sound engineering.
