“We really need to be able to harness the intelligence and creativity of everybody – art is the way we do that.” Film First has unveiled an official trailer for a documentary film called simply Eno, a creative biopic doc about music artist Brian Eno. This first premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival last year and it will be getting an online premiere exactly one year from its original debut. If you want to watch it online during this time on January 24th, click here ($24 for 24 hours). The doc film is showing as a “24 Hours of Eno” event, because it features generative elements and always-changing footage, making it “unique” every single time anyone watches it – including during this 24 hour period. In the first career-spanning doc about the legendary artist, filmmaker Gary Hustwit set out to decode Eno’s creative strategies and to reject the hagiographic impulses of the music doc genre. The result is a “generative documentary about artist Brian Eno, with 52 quintillion possible iterations, so that no viewing is the same twice.” Sound cool? Have a look.
Here’s the official “24 Hours” trailer for Gary Hustwit’s music biopic doc Eno, direct from YouTube:
Visionary musician and artist Brian Eno — known for producing David Bowie, U2, Talking Heads, among many others; pioneering the genre of ambient music; and releasing more than 40 solo and collaboration albums — reveals his creative processes in the groundbreaking generative documentary ENO: a film that’s different every time it’s shown. (“Experience with multiple unique versions of the documentary generated around the clock.”) Acclaimed filmmaker Gary Hustwit set out to decode Eno’s creative strategies and examine his lifelong search for the meaning of music in the first career-spanning film of the legendary & prolific artist. Eno is directed by the award-winning doc filmmaker Gary Hustwit, of the films Helvetica, Objectified, Urbanized, Workplace, and Rams previously. Produced by Jessica Edwards and Gary Hustwit. This initially premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival last year. The film will premiere online as a 24 hour debut with new versions as time goes on – on January 24th, 2025.
