Publisher's Synopsis

Journey with Jesse as he captures the biography of one of culture's most colourful characters, R. Murray Schafer. Starting with their search for a lost child in the Haliburton Forest, to exploring soundscapes of Japan, to an unexpected battle with the mysterious Morgellons, Jesse exposes an insidious plot to destroy the planet and arrives at the same conclusion as Murray. Art should be dangerous. Over a period of one year the author shadowed R. Murray Schafer to penetrate the multifaceted genius of Canada's preeminent composer, artist, agitator, environmental activist and the originator of the term "soundscape."
