@thetonearm Before my dad passed away in 2011, I'd look at photos taken of him, and would consider that the latest photo taken of him as an old man, was the "real" him.

Once he passed away, I had an epiphany that my dad, in fact, existed equally in all of the photos taken of him.

He transcended time.

I think the Eno documentary treats Enos career in a similar way. The editing allows Eno's entire career to speak with equal importance.

@thetonearm We watched the documentary with Eno and its really well done.

This may be difficult to express, but a documentary usually follows a person's career as a linear progression.

Here, all parts of Eno's life is expressed equally. Slipping forward and back following a discussion. The result is that Eno exists equally in all points of his life. Fascinating.

I'd like to think we all deserve to view our own lives that way.

I'll continue this thread...

Auguri a #BrianEno che oggi compie 77 anni!
#SSS lo omaggia con una recensione al documentario #Eno, dedicato al celebre compositore e inventore della #musica d'ambiente.
Il film di #GaryHustwit si ispira agli stessi principi generativi che guidano il processo compositivo di Brian Eno, con versioni multiple dello stesso film che variano a ogni proiezione grazie all'uso di un software in grado di modificare le sequenze in tempo reale.
