Bernard Fort

**Bernard Fort** is a French electroacoustic composer and sound artist deeply rooted in exploring the natural world through immersive audio experiences. A key figure at France’s GRM (Groupe de Recherches Musicales), he’s spent decades blending field recordings with electronic processing to craft vivid sonic landscapes. His work often feels like a passport to remote ecosystems, whether capturing Mexico’s bustling biodiversity, Corsica’s rugged forests, or global nocturnal ambiances, as seen in recent releases like *Paysages sonores du Mexique* and *Nocturnes du monde*.

Fort’s projects, such as *Le Miroir Des Oiseaux* and *Forêts et montagnes corses*, reveal his knack for transforming environmental sounds into hypnotic, layered compositions—part documentary, part avant-garde experimentation. Whether conjuring fractal patterns in *Brain Fever* or framing nature as both muse and instrument, his work invites listeners to slow down and reimagine their connection to the planet’s acoustic tapestry.
