Brian Eno - In Conversation, Artscape documentary, 2009

This guy is a genius...

Could listen for hours.

He always has something interesting to say, I had this on in the background whilst I was working – kind of 'ambient inspiration' if you will let me get away with such a phrase

Brian Eno,You have a grateful fan in icy frozen midcoast Maine..Thank you for making my life better thru your music....

Ok someone give this interviewer guy back his neck

I think he means..Fela 'Coltrane'.. Kuti....Love Eno ,though.

Climate change? Well, from Australia,..climate change and its 'source'- can be readily seen before sun up- if one knows where to look. Infrared photos will reveal much more
about climate change -especially near the Sun.

That was a lovely interview! The interviewer asked very good questions and Eno replied in his usual very thought-provoking fashion. There is actually quite a lot of ideas revealed in that interview to be unpacked. I wish I were 1/10 as creative as Brian Eno.

i really like Eno and his work with the exception of U2 who are the worst most overrated group ever. idk why he would have anything to do with those tossers but money is money

The worst writing in the world comes out of the contemporary art world. Without any doubt there's nothing worse in terms of sheer.... incoherence actually. First of all "the inability to express a thought clearly" and secondly... "the lack of any thoughts". So you have no thoughts, inarticulately expressed. It really is the worst kind of writing you can get... So well said, thank you Brian Eno. A handicapped-confused-cut and paste type frantically hurried "nothing" is what we've got now at our disposal unfortunately.

Just bought the bio, "On Some Faraway Beach" and I am very intrigued about this man's childhood and youth. I have so many of the albums and know so little about him.
Interesting chat here, too.

I love Brian 💕❤

İ realized that this guy invented the music that makes me pass out at night.

One of (if not THE) founding fathers of ambient music. Thank you Brian!!!

Seems to me, the "art world" is full of people saying simple things in a complicated, cluttered way. Eno strikes me as just the reverse of that. For all his critical accolades, he is incredibly unpretentious and straightforward. I could listen to him talk indefinitely. An intellectual, in every (good) sense of that word.

What a great interviewer. Thank you

So, but "Ambient Music" is nothing but the electronic minimalist music which began on the West Coast starting in 71 with composers like Ingram marshall and Harold Budd, but with a different name. Eno is a brilliant, brilliant man - but this genre was not his, only his name was

Music For Airports

Brian Eno is awesome. This is a really insightful interview. It's filled with inspiration and unique interpretations of the culture. Really enjoyable to watch this one.

At about 14 min., best explanation of why ambient music is so great.

Music for Airports!!

Gosh! Just genius!

That will sound strange but im a 30 years old man and my life prospect and philosophy rounds about art in a familiar way ! technology, art and revolution !

interesting and thoughtful research - this is when the nerd writer is at its best :) keep up the quality

Funny weird how the intro completely skips over the krautrock era. Quite weird

People people this guys made the U2 the band is known to you, Bono is the false person taking credit
Brian Eno made U2 what it is

It's 2019 now .. speaker here of humanity in it's present form .. looking for changes ... interesting Eno ...

Classic Eno, intelligence squared.

Intelligent conversations never bore

goes to my hearth

now thats a neck

Been watching a few of these Eno interviews. He often gets asked the same questions and gives, basically, the same answers, but he seems to avoid over thinking about things, and like some creative oracle, he responds quickly, and concisely with his own ideas and formulas. It can be repetitive, and a bit hit and miss, and you can take it or leave it, but you will generally benefit from his vision, and years of experience. If not, you will at least, learn different processes and ways of doing things.

Very nice interview, and all respect for Brian Eno and his music. But he didn't invent ambient music. Vangelis was much earlier. IN 1970 he recorded the soundtrack for the documentary "apocalypse des animaux". Check it out.

Down to earth mental astronaut articulate genius.

Brian Eno has never produced David Bowie. He worked with Bowie as a co-creator and ideas man. Tony Visconti was the producer on the so called "Berlin Trilogy"; Low, Heroes & Lodger.

Just wondering, couldn't the music for airports also be used for supermarkets and phone-waits? I've had to leave supermarkets because of the abrasive 'noise' of speakers

I really enjoyed watching this. For a long time, I pre-judged him because of his dressing like a woman. Weird...but he's a very interesting man, and innovative. And nice-looking, too! No matter what he's dressed as. Sometimes I think blind people are at an advantage because they can't judge people based on appearance . I'm now a really big fan of Eno's. I was all wrong. Saw this when I saw a Bowie video. This quarantine has actually opened my mind. They say 'seek to understand rather than be understood"! Like, are others different from me, or am I diffferent from others! So many misconceptions. Yet it doesn't have to mean I compromise my beliefs; just make room for others'!

Genius but his voice does not match his appearance at all lmao

“Television has no future .... It’s finished as a medium.... It doesn’t do anything interesting.... It has no energy ....”

Masterful/Brill...-Eno (n this Convo.

I've been listening to Eno Music since the early 70's. I've amassed some beautiful paintings with Music for Airports playing in the background. Brian is a treasure.

"No thoughts, inarticulately expressed". Fuck me, scathing or what.

In 2009 he saw the end of tv. Maestro!

I find brian eno articulate and generous, I find myself agreeing with almost everything he talks about, he really is a man who will probably be appreciated for a very long time into the future I feel primitive and backward in comparison as an artist, i love his way of looking at life, art ,music and culture. Never boring.

good
