Still, it was nearly impossible to deliver his solos or elaborate ragas. In fact, they have more in visual creations to the masses. That all changed common with live music than they do with traditional around the turn of the 21st century. “I walked past a artwork. “When I started working on visual work rather posh house in my area with a great big huge again, I actually wanted to make paintings that were screen on the wall and a dinner party going on”, he more like music”, he says. “That meant making visual says. “The screen on the wall was black because work that nonetheless changed very slowly”.

    GALLERIA VALENTINABONOMO BRIAN ENO Light Music Opening: 20 May 2016 h.17-20 Via del portico d’Ottavia 13 Roma 00186 www.galleriabonomo.com Per informazioni: tel. 06-6832766 / [email protected] GALLERIA VALENTINABONOMO Friday, 20 May 2016 – September 2016 Press Release The Galleria Valentina Bonomo is delighted to announce the inauguration the exhibition of Brian Eno on Friday, 20 May, 2016 from 6 to 9 pm at via del Portico d’Ottavia 13. The British multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer, Brian Eno, experiments with diverse forms of expression including sculpture, painting and video. Eno is the pioneer of ambient music and generative paintings; he has created soundtracks for numerous films and composed game and atmosphere music. ‘Non-music-music’, as he himself prefers to describe it, has the capacity to be utilized in multiple mediums, intermixing with figurative art to become immersive ‘soundscapes’. By using continuously moving images on multiple monitors, Brian Eno designs endless combination games with infinite varieties of forms, lights and sounds, where not everything is as it seems, and each thing is constantly shifting and changing in a casual and inexorable way, just like in life (ex. 77 Million Paintings). “As long as the screen is considered as just a medium for film or tv, the future is exclusively reserved to an increasing level of hysteria. I am interested in breaking the rigid relationship between the audience and the video: to make it so that the first does not remain seated, but observes the screen as if it were a painting.” Brian Eno For this project, the first of its kind to be realized in a private gallery in Rome, Eno puts together two diverse bodies of work, the light boxes and the speaking flowers.

  • Brian Eno's '77 Million Paintings' Is an Artwork That Won't Sit Still
    Brian Eno's '77 Million Paintings' is an artwork that won't sit still http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/06/27/... Print This Article Back to Article Brian Eno's '77 Million Paintings' is an artwork that won't sit still Sylvie Simmons, Special to The Chronicle Wednesday, June 27, 2007 "Ah, synesthesia," Brian Eno says by telephone from England. "Vladimir Nabokov had a very severe and interesting form of that -- between characters of the Russian Cyrillic alphabet and color and taste sensations. One particular letter he described as being unquestionably a deep ginger in color with a dark, oily taste. I don't have anything like that." Perhaps not. But Eno admits there are times when he'll listen to one of his self-generating musical compositions and think, "It needs something cold blue over there or it needs something big, soft and brown." His instrumental music -- as fans of his "Ambient" and "Soundtrack" albums will attest -- paints pictures, and his visual art is musical: slow, rhythmic, ambient. When Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno left Roxy Music in 1973, he re-emerged as the founding father of ambient music, embarking on a career in which mainstream projects -- like producing U2 -- were outnumbered by experimental, often computer-based ones as likely to reflect his art school training as his time as a rock keyboard player. This week Eno, 59, presents the U.S. premiere of his "77 Million Paintings," a three-night stand at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Forum.

Course Description As music moves into the next millennium, we are continually confronted by the pervasive use of new music technologies. The world of music is changing rapidly as these technologies open and close doorways of possibility. An appreciation of this shifting technological environment is necessary for active listeners seeking a profound understanding of how music functions in our society. Furthermore, understanding how these technologies function is now almost essential for contemporary composers and theorists working to build an intellectual context for the creation of new musical art. This class will make use of the Columbia University Digital Recording Facility for all of the course work. Class attendance is mandatory - you must attend class; there will be no make up sessions if you miss a day. Missing three classes will lower your final grade by one grade level. Assignments will be due when noted in this syllabus. Lecture notes will be available on the Web through Courseworks. You will be responsible for one final project due on 05/02/11. In addition, the class will work together on a re-creation of a classic Beatles recording.

  • Almost Infinite
    FROM THE ACADEMY UPFRONT Brian Eno’s 77 Million Paintings at the Fabrica gallery in Brighton, ALMOST England, 2010. INFINITE Brian Eno quiets the mind. amongst the tightly controlled chaos that is city life, a moment of clarity or sanity can be hard to find. Quiet time becomes yet another thing to rigorously schedule into your day. It’s exhausting. But sometimes these moments pop up unexpectedly—you’ll be riding the subway or walking on a relentlessly crowded street, both hyper-aware of your environment and willfully ignoring it at the same damn time. 77 Million Paintings, an audio-visual instal- lation by Brian Eno, is a place where New York- ers can take pause. Showing in the former lo- cation of Café Rouge on West 32nd Street, this marks the New York debut of Eno’s piece, and is also the largest indoor version that’s been produced since the piece premiered in 2006. 77 Million Paintings is a “generative work”—a term coined by Eno 20 years ago to describe art that makes itself as you watch it—that explores vast combinations of visual and sonic elements. Images are chosen at random and then laid on top of one another, so that the final output is a continuous stream of ever-changing material. There aren’t many of the initial “primitives,” as Eno calls the original paintings, but when overlaid four at a time, the number of possible distinct combinations is a whopping 77 million. Eno is fascinated by combinatorial mathe- matics. His idea of generative art takes “a sys- tems approach to making art,” as he explained during his recent lecture at Red Bull Music Academy, “where essentially you are creating a conceptual machine, which then keeps produc- ing stuff.” This effectively ensures that the same image or soundscape never repeats.

  • Thinking Inside the Box: Brian Eno, Music, Movement and Light THINKING INSIDE the BOX Brian Eno, Music, Movement and Light
    Rupert Loydell & Kingsley Marshall Thinking Inside the Box: Brian Eno, music, movement and light THINKING INSIDE THE BOX Brian Eno, music, movement and light Kingsley Marshall & Rupert Loydell ‘In total darkness, or in a very large room, very quietly’ (Eno & Schmidt, 1979) One ‘Do nothing for as long as possible’ (Eno & Schmidt, 1979) ‘Brian Eno isn’t particularly known for his visual art. He’s known for shattering musical conventions’ (Dustin Driver, 2007). This state of affairs may be changed by the publication of Christopher Scoates Brian Eno. Visual Music (2013) which ‘focus[es] on the ways in which Eno’s approach to art making overlaps and flows seamlessly between both his art and music, and approach[es] Eno’s work from diverse perspectives that attest to the breadth of his inquiry.’ (ibid: pp. 14-15) This breadth of enquiry, along with his art materials can sometimes put Eno at odds with the art world. ‘Brian Eno paints with light. And his paintings, like the medium, shift and dance like free-flowing jazz solos or elaborate ragas.’ (Driver, 2007), that is they are hard to pin down, and they are certainly not paintings or sculptures in the traditional sense. Eno challenges this: ‘The problem with the whole art object theory, the idea that art somehow resides inside objects because artists have put it there or discovered it, creates a picture of an independent entity, a substance in the world called Art’ (In Prendergast, 2008) Whether making sculptures which fit over light sources, computer programmes which endlessy change and mutate, apps for phones and tablets, or site-specific exhibitions (often in specially constructed sites), Eno has concerned himself with ‘compositions which change every time they’re played as the systems behind them introduce some kind of randomness.’ (Steadman, 2012) and by making ‘something so seductive that you couldn’t leave’ (Eno in Locker, 2013).
