30 october 2022
GULAG History Museum made a project with electronic musician Anton Maskeliade on the Remembrance Day for the Victims of Political Repression.
The album «A wonderful planet» was created by students of the Maskeliade School after reading the eponymous collection of stories by Georgy Demidov about the life of prisoners in the GULAG camps.
Georgy Demidov was physicist, Lev Landau's student, prisoner of the Kolyma camps, an outstanding writer about the life of GULAG prisoners.
The musicians rethought Demidov's experience and turned the lyrics into music.
