'Eno'- live documentary and post film conversation

Musician and producer, Brian Eno has been at the forefront of artistic innovation for more than five decades – whether through his development of ambient music, composing the Windows startup sound, or when collaborating with artists including David Bowie, U2, Talking Heads and Coldplay. 

 

Join the V&A for a special screening of Eno, a generative documentary that’s never the same twice, followed by Q&A with filmmakers Gary Hustwit and Brendan Dawes. With access to hundreds of hours of never-before-seen footage and unreleased music, filmmaker Gary Hustwit (Helvetica, Rams) and digital artist Brendan Dawes have developed generative software to create an ever-different feature film about Eno and his work. Each screening is unique, presenting different scenes, order, music, and meant to be experienced live. The generative and infinitely iterative quality of Eno resonates with the artist's own creative practice, his methods of using technology to compose music and his boundless quest for creativity.

 

Part of the V&A’s inaugural Digital Art Season which runs until 30 November 2024 and addresses questions of technology, creativity and digital.
