The groundbreaking generative documentary about visionary musician and artist Brian Eno, a film that’s different every time it’s shown.
Renowned filmmaker Gary Hustwit’s (HELVETICA, RAMS) new documentary Eno employs groundbreaking technology to explore Eno’s work and ideas, best known for pioneering ambient music and producing David Bowie, U2, Talking Heads, Laurie Anderson and dozens of others. Hustwit and creative technologist Brendan Dawes have developed bespoke generative software designed to sequence scenes and create transitions out of Hustwit’s original interviews with Eno, and Eno’s rich archive of hundreds of hours of never-before-seen footage, and unreleased music. Each screening of Eno is unique, presenting different scenes, order, music, and meant to be experienced live. The generative and infinitely iterative quality of Eno poetically resonates with the artist's own creative practice, his methods of using technology to compose music, and his endless deep dive into the mercurial essence of creativity. The film features an original score from Eno.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Gary Huswit and special guests (to be announced).
